When free pattern Friday falls on October 1st, you know it’s got to be an extra special pattern! This coffin clutch bag is both spooky and cute - perfect for all your October shenanigans. The bag features peek a boo lace with fabric backing, metallic accents for a dash of punk, and a zipper with a wristlet strap.

I used Cascade Yarns Noble Cotton for this one. It’s a mercerized cotton that’s very durable as well as shiny. The pink lavender color was just too cute to pass up. This is seriously like the pastel goth bag of my dreams!

Stitches used are linked double crochet and crossed double crochet. They’re not super tricky, but I wouldn’t call them beginner stitches. Also, the construction of the bag and all the add ons make it a bit more advanced, so I would recommend this pattern for intermediate level crocheters.

7” Zipper
13 mm Lobster Clasp 
Paper Fasteners aka Brads 
An Awl or a Pointy Screwdriver
