Handmade Crochet Card Wallet Pattern for Stylish Organization
This little wallet is ideal for everyday use — an easy way to organize credit cards, ID cards, or business cards in one tidy place. It’s slim enough to slip into a pocket or purse, yet sturdy enough to protect your cards from bending or damage.
The finished result has a soft texture and subtle handmade aesthetic that adds charm to your daily carry. Practical, elegant, and effortlessly stylish, this card wallet is a perfect blend of utility and simple beauty.
You begin by chaining the base and building a flat rectangle foundation.
In the middle stage you continue with simple crochet stitches to grow the body of the wallet, shaping it into a compact form that’s perfect to hold cards and small essentials.
Finally, you fold or seam the edges, secure the sides, and finish off the top, creating a clean closure so your cards stay snug and the wallet keeps its form.

Tutor’s Suggestions
-
Hook Size: Adjust your hook size based on the yarn’s thickness; a slightly smaller hook (like the size 7 used) results in a tighter, more structured fabric.
-
Key Ring: Add a key ring or charm to the side to enhance the accessory.
Final Tip
The key to getting the structured “X” stitch is to be consistent: when pulling the yarn through the stitch to create the single crochet, always keep the yarn below the hook. This ensures the resulting fabric is firm and keeps the wallet’s shape.
Conclusion
This fast and simple crochet project produces a durable and attractive card wallet using the Modified Single Crochet technique. The resulting structured fabric makes it an ideal small accessory that you can easily customize and use for everyday items.
