Adding Fringe
Cut multiple strands of yarn to equal length using a DVD case as a guide.
For Each Fringe:
Fold a strand in half, aligning the ends. Insert your hook into the extra loop space created in Row 4.
Pull the folded center of the yarn strand through the loop slightly.
Yarn over with both ends of the fringe and pull them through the loop to form a lark’s head knot. Gently tug down to secure.
Repeat this process around the clutch, adding fringe to each loop created in Row 4.
