Holiday Special: Knitted Couture Clutch

We have developed something special for you: a fine bag that you can make yourself with different techniques in the style of Dolce & Gabbana:

We have been inspired by beautiful winter collection of D&G.

And what could be more enjoyable now that we’re all more at home, when we’re all working on a creative project ourselves that produces a stylish result and can immediately be a wonderful gift for yourself or someone you love?

Let’s make it cosy at home and make someone happy with a clutch in style. The tutorial gives tips on where to get the materials and what variations are possible.

For example, you can replace the knitted part with a fabric, such as a tweed or bouclé. This way it will keep its winter character, but you will save the time of knitting.

Directly from the catwalk to your home or studio, this Holiday Special is a Limited Edition.
