Plaid is so cheerful on a grey winter’s day, and this clutch bag is a perfect small project if you would like to try out the technique of creating a plaid design by weaving chain strands through mesh crochet. Very simple to work, with a stunning finish. Three strap options are provided with the pattern, including instructions for adding a leather strap, to withstand hard wear, or a plaid crochet strap for occasional use.
