Dive into your scrap basket to create an Edgewater Clutch! This stylish zipper pouch is designed to use up scraps of worsted weight yarn in a colorful, eye-catching medley.

You can put odds and ends as short as 12 yards to use to work up this simple yet stunning market-friendly piece. Its seamless construction ensures a quick work-up, with just a little sewing to attach the zipper. A lining is not necessary unless you prefer one.
