FurLux Clutch (EN)

The FurLux Clutch is a luxurious and stylish DIY accessory, perfect for those who love to crochet elegant fashion pieces. This clutch bag is worked bottom-up, beginning with flat rows of double crochet (DC). Once the base reaches the desired size, you’ll continue crocheting in the round, connecting each round with a slip stitch to build the depth of the bag.

Designed with fur yarn, this project uses the soft and plush Fur Lux by Go Handmade, which adds rich texture and a high-end look to the finished bag. The yarn is soft, fluffy, and slightly challenging to work with due to its texture, but the end result is an eye-catching, cozy clutch. If Fur Lux is unavailable, similar fur yarns may be used—just make sure to check the gauge and adjust as needed.

The recommended hook size is 6.5 mm, though it can be adjusted according to your personal tension. You’ll also need a metal bag clasp, a leather cord, fabric tape, tapestry needle, and scissors. The clutch is designed in one size, with approximate dimensions of 24 cm (length) x 18 cm (width) x 11 cm (height), which perfectly fits a clasp of 24x18 cm. However, the size is fully customizable by adjusting the stitch count or the number of rounds.

The clasp can be crocheted over using the same fur yarn or wrapped in fabric tape for a neat finish before attaching it. Optional lining adds a clean, professional touch, using fabric cut to 35x35 cm and sewn to fit the interior.

Whether for a night out or as a handmade gift, the FurLux Clutch is a unique and functional statement piece.
