Article: How to Make a Round Coin Purse with Lining and Zipper

Introduction Welcome back to my channel! In this tutorial, I will show you how to make a cute and functional round coin purse with lining and a zipper. This project is perfect for using up scrap yarns and fabric linings that you might have laying around. Not only will you end up with a stylish coin purse, but it also makes for a great giveaway or gift.

Materials Needed To get started, gather the following materials:

• Yarn (acrylic fingering weight, two strands)
• Fabric linings
• Zipper
• Optional: keychain

Round 1: Creating the Base To begin, chain four and then work eleven double crochets into the first chain. This will give you a total of twelve double crochets. Use a 3.5mm hook and medium weight yarn for a similar size as demonstrated in this tutorial.

Round 2: Adding Stitches Switch to a different color, such as black, for round two. Work two double crochets in each stitch around, starting with a chain three as the first double crochet. Repeat this pattern in every stitch, resulting in twenty-four double crochets.

Round 3: Increasing the Circle Continuing with the color change, chain three on any stitch, then work two double crochets in the next stitch. Repeat this pattern all around to create a flat circle. Keep increasing every round to maintain the circular shape.

Creating the Opening To make the opening of the coin purse, work one single crochet in the first stitch, followed by one single crochet in the next stitch. In the third stitch, make an increase by working two single crochets in one stitch. Repeat this pattern five times and then single crochet in the next two stitches. Repeat this process on the other circle as well.

Joining the Circles After completing both circles, join them together by making sure the right sides are facing up. Join the two stitches together, ensuring the count matches on both edges. Continue working increases until the last two stitches, then fasten off and secure any loose ends.

Adding the Zipper Attach a continuous zipper to the coin purse. Sew it using a sewing machine, making sure to follow the pattern you've created on the fabric lining. Cut out two small circles from the fabric, with right sides facing each other. Flip the coin purse and insert the fabric lining, folding the seam allowance and doing an overcast stitch to secure it.

Creating the Pattern for the Fabric Lining First, draw a circle on a piece of paper and add a 1/4 inch seam allowance. Trace this pattern onto the fabric lining, ensuring you have enough seam allowance for sewing.

Attaching the Lining Once you have the fabric lining pieces, place them together with right sides facing each other. Flip the coin purse and insert the fabric lining, folding the seam allowance and using an overcast stitch to secure it.

Final Touches After attaching the fabric lining, you can add any final touches you desire. Consider attaching a keychain for added charm and personalization. Feel free to get creative and make it your own!
