Crochet Card Holder Pattern

CH 19 to start

Row 1 – In the second chain from the loop, SC & HDC in the same ST. Skip one chain. SC & HDC in the next stitch. Repeat 9x. CH 1, then turn.

Row 2 through 34 – Skip first stitch. SC & HDC in every other stitch. CH 1 then turn.

Now we are finished with the base of the pattern. To clean things up a bit and make it look like I recommend doing SC’s all around the pattern.

Personally, I like tying off the base pattern, then starting the single crochets all around on the side. Either way, you’ll want ot be sure to place 3 SC’s in all 4 corners to get that nice rounded look.

Next, you’ll want to fold up one end and SL ST the sides together, as shown in the image below.

I pretty much just eyeball this and separate it into 3 equal pieces so it will fold over completely.

Use a tapestry needle to sew in your ends if you haven’t already.

The final step is adding the magnetic button to close the card holder. I went with a 14mm magnetic button, but you can go up a size if you’d like.

If you are using branding hardware on your crochet card holder like I am, you’ll want to make sure to lace the back of the branding hardware behind the top magnetic button, as shown below.

Finally, you’ll add a super cute wristlet to your design. I decided to go with more hardware, but you can also look at some other super cute free wristlet patterns on the site. I recommend this one!

I hope you enjoyed this super easy crochet card holder pattern!
