Hug is the name of this minimalist card holder (or wallet) where you can put cash and bills and tickets in the flappy pockets, 4 to 6 cards in the middle pocket. Really handy. Tools I use and complete tutorial chapters below. ⬇

This is the first time I've worked on a rounded variant this small leather good. I have several other colors of leather and threads to match your taste if you want the same shapes 😀😀

All feedback are welcome since I don't do this kind of format often. Don't hesitate to tell me what I can improve for you :)

⚠ The finish product here doesn't represent the usual quality of the products made. Recording a tutorial while doing it doesn't allow me to be 100% focus on the making of the leather wallet.
