Complete Crochet Pattern

1. Wallet Base

• Foundation:
  • Start with a slip knot and chain 22.
• Row 1:
  • Skip 2 chains from hook (counts as first dc), double crochet (dc) in the 3rd chain, then dc in each chain across the row.
  • In the very last chain, work 3 dc (this creates the curve for the turn), then turn to work along the opposite side of the foundation.
  • Double crochet along the entire other side of the foundation chain.
  • In the starting chain, work 2 dc in the final stitch to round the curve and complete the base. (Both ends now have rounded edges.)
• Foundation Round 2:
  • Chain 2, dc in the same stitch (beginning edge), then dc in each stitch around the entire base, picking up both rounded ends and straight edges as you go.

2. Adding Leaves & Flowers

• Leafs (V-Stitch Round):
  • Attach green yarn in any stitch.
  • In every other stitch around the base: V-Stitch (1 dc, ch 2, 1 dc) in the same stitch.
  • Continue until you return to start, placing V-stitches in alternating stitches for leafy effect.
• Tulip Flowers (Popcorn ‘Tulip’ Round):
  • Attach pink/favorite flower yarn to any V-stitch chain space.
  • In each V-stitch space: Work 5 double crochets, remove hook from loop, insert in first dc, pick up loop, yarn over, pull through (popcorn made), ch 1 to lock, ch 1 as spacer before next tulip.
  • Repeat this popcorn tulip process in every V-stitch space around.

3. Upper Section & Flap

• Upper Body:
  • Re-attach base-colored yarn to any chain space between tulips.
  • In each space: Work 2 dc (in every chain space and between tulips) around to create a flat top.
  • After this round, work 3 more rounds of dc, making 1 dc in every stitch around for each round to build up body height.
• Flap Construction:
  • Mark the center 18 stitches on one long side, this will become the flap.
  • Work across the marked stitches only:
    • Row 1 (Flap): Dc in each of the 18 marked stitches, at end ch 2, turn.
    • Row 2 (Flap): Dc in each stitch across, ch 2, turn.
    • Row 3 (Flap): Dc in each stitch across. Fasten off base yarn.

4. Final Touches

• Border:
  • Attach tulip-colored yarn to one corner of wallet opening.
  • Work a border around the entire wallet opening and flap: Chain 4, slip stitch in the next stitch, chain 4, slip stitch in next stitch, repeat all around the opening and edge of flap to create a soft scalloped finish.
• Closure:
  • At the wallet opening (under the flap), attach magnet snap closure as per manufacturer instructions.
  • On the outer side of the flap, sew a decorative button centered over the snap using matching thread or yarn.

Assembly & Finished Size

After all rounds and rows are complete, weave in all ends with a tapestry needle. Lay wallet flat and block gently, if needed, for crisp edges. Attach closure securely; the wallet should fold naturally at the body-flap join. Button should align directly over snap for a balanced look and easy use. Interior will show rows of double crochet, with leafy and floral details at the front.
