    \n\n\n\n

    Step 1: Make a Granny Square<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    The wallet will be made from 2 or 3 granny squares depending on size. Here\u2019s a simple granny square pattern:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Basic Granny Square Pattern<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    1. Magic ring:<\/strong> Make a loop and chain 3 (counts as first double crochet).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Round 1:<\/strong> Work 2 double crochets (dc) into the ring, chain 2, 3 dc into the ring, chain 2<\/em> repeat 3 times. Join with slip stitch to the top of the first chain-3.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Round 2:<\/strong> Slip stitch into the first chain-2 space, chain 3, 2 dc in same space, chain 2, 3 dc in same space.\n
        \n
      • 3 dc, chain 2, 3 dc in next corner space<\/em> around. Join with slip stitch to top of first chain-3.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Round 3:<\/strong> Repeat Round 2 for larger square. You can make it as big as you want your wallet to be.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Fasten off and weave in ends.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

        Tip:<\/strong> For a colorful wallet, use a different color for each round.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n\n\n\n

        Step 2: Make 2 Squares for the Wallet<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
          \n
        • You need 2 granny squares<\/strong> of the same size\u2014one for the front<\/strong> and one for the back<\/strong> of the wallet.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Optional: Make a smaller square for a front pocket<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
          \n\n\n\n

          Step 3: Join the Squares<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

          There are multiple ways to join squares:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Method 1: Single Crochet Seam<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
            \n
          1. Place the squares right sides together<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          2. Insert your hook through both squares and single crochet along the edges.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          3. Leave the top open for the wallet opening.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

            Method 2: Whip Stitch (for a neater look)<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
              \n
            1. Use a tapestry needle to sew around 3 sides, leaving the top open.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            2. Make sure your stitches are tight so nothing falls out.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
              \n\n\n\n

              Step 4: Add a Wallet Flap (Optional)<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
                \n
              • You can fold the top edge over or crochet an extra rectangle flap<\/strong> to cover the wallet opening.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
              • Attach the flap to the back square with single crochet along the edge.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
                \n\n\n\n
                \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

                Step 5: Add Closure<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
                  \n
                • Button:<\/strong> Sew a button on the front and chain a loop on the flap.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                • Snap:<\/strong> Sew a snap closure.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                • Zipper:<\/strong> If you want a zippered wallet, sew a zipper along the top opening before joining sides.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
                  \n\n\n\n

                  Step 6: Add a Lining (Optional for sturdiness)<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
                    \n
                  1. Cut a piece of fabric slightly smaller than the wallet.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                  2. Sew it inside with a running stitch or glue fabric glue.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                  3. This will make your wallet more durable and protect coins\/cards.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
                    \n\n\n\n

                    Step 7: Weave in Ends<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
                      \n
                    • Use your tapestry needle to tuck all loose ends inside the wallet.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                    • Make sure there are no yarn tails sticking out.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                      Step 8: Enjoy Your Handmade Wallet<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
                        \n
                      • Your crochet granny square wallet is done!<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                      • Customize it with buttons, beads, or patches<\/strong> to make it uniquely yours.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
                        \n\n\n\n

                        Tips for Beginners<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
                          \n
                        • Keep your tension consistent\u2014too tight or too loose can change wallet size.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                        • If using multiple colors, carry the yarn along the edges for a neat look.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                        • Granny squares can be made in any size<\/strong>, so experiment to find your perfect wallet dimension.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
                          \n\n\n\n
