Making a leather wallet by hand. FREE PATTERN
Hey guys,
Mircea from Kron Leather here.
New week of staying indoors means a new pattern I will share with you.
The link pattern of what you see in the video is right here: bit.ly/2WveVY1
If you'd like to support my work, my Etsy shop is here:
www.etsy.com/shop/KronLeatherGoods
I used 1mm thick leather on this wallet. Both leathers are full grain, vegetable tanned from La Perla Azzurra tannery in Italy, natural and olive.
For the stitching I opted for purple Fil au Chinois linen thread.
The pricking irons I use are from Crimson Hides. They are not cheap but make a very big difference and to be honest the sets I have are almost 2 years old and I see no difference.
If you have any questions/suggestions, feel free to write your comment below.
Thanks for watching!
Hope you like it!!! Oh, don't forget to Like and Subscribe for more stuff!
Best wishes!
