Learn how to crochet a corner to corner rectangle as you create a cute crochet clutch bag using a non-standard C2C stitch.

C2C Crochet traditionally uses the US double crochet stitch in it’s technique, but the technique can be used for other crochet stitches too.

In this crochet clutch bag pattern, the US half double crochet stitch is used to create a firmer crochet fabric which is more suitable for using in a bag pattern.
