Hey everyone! I wanted to thanks so much for you encouragement and excitement on my behalf! Yesterday, I announced that has Red Heart invited me to Women’s Choice Awards. It is such an honor to be invited by amazing women to celebrate amazing women.  I wanted to involve my people (stay tuned for my first-ever Facebook Live), and let you vote on which clutch I should take to the event. Yesterday I shared the free crochet pattern for my Color Pop Clutch. Today, I am sharing this gorgeous Tide Pool Clutch.

The photos don’t do this beautiful yarn justice. The gradient and subtle changes are so pretty and it reminds me of the deep ocean water. Just beautiful.
