DS-077 The Shipmate Wallets Digital Pattern

This is a leather PDF pattern of the Shipmate Wallet to make three different variations of a trucker wallet (sometime known also as biker wallet): The Signature Shipmate is a modern trucker wallet design with a zipper pocket and an optional external slot for easy access to the most used card. The zipper pocket can also hold cards instead of coins. Snap buttons are hidden for a more stylish look. The No Zipper Shipmate wallet is for those who don’t want to deal with installing a zipper but without losing the coin pocket functionality. The optional external card slot is possible on that one too. The coin pocket can hold cards instead of coins. The Classic Shipmate offers a classic minimal trucker wallet design with a zipper pocket and a compartment for cash and cards. The zipper pocket can also hold cards instead of coins. Snap buttons are visible. This is one is the quickest one to make. External card slot is an option on this variation too. The wallet pattern is appropriate for leather crafters with Advanced skill level. The leather wallet template allows for diverse leather and thread combinations. Have fun making The Shipmate Wallets!
