Class Project: Crocheted Envelope

This is another one of the projects I am teaching in my beginner crochet class. It's a crocheted envelope.

Crocheted using Red Heart Classic yarn.

It works up pretty quickly, and there is a nice little finishing trick to make the shape. This would be a cute toiletries bag for the vacation suitcase or a nice sized clutch. You could also add a handle and make a casual purse for a tween. Or use it in place of wrapping paper for a special gift.
