Athene Clutch vol. 2 is the ultimate "all-in-one" bag. It works perfectly as your everyday go-to bag but can also be used as a stylish makeup bag. With its classic woven pattern and timeless design, it's suitable for any occasion. The bag can be made in a variety of yarn options, making it both personal and versatile.
Workflow:
The Athene Clutch vol. 2 is knitted from the bottom up. The bottom of the bag is first knitted in double knitting, after which stitches are picked up along the sides. Then, the bag is knitted in the round with the pattern report until it reaches the desired height. The zipper band is knitted as the finishing touch, and the zipper is then sewn in place. Finally, all loose ends are woven in, and there is an option to sew a lining inside the bag for extra finishing.
