✂️ How to Install a Magnetic Clasp
Installation is simple and requires no special tools — just a craft knife or scissors and a fabric lining or interfacing.
- Mark the position of your clasp on the fabric lining of your bag (not directly on the crochet fabric — always back with lining or interfacing for strength)
- Make two small slits in the fabric at the marked position using a craft knife or small scissors
- Push the two prongs of the magnetic disc through the slits from the front
- Place the metal washer (backing plate) over the prongs on the back of the fabric
- Fold the prongs outward flat against the washer to secure the disc in place
- Repeat for the second disc on the opposite side of the bag opening
- The two magnetic discs will snap together when the bag is closed
💡 Pro Tips
-
Always back with interfacing or a fabric lining — never attach directly to crochet fabric alone, as the prongs need a firm base to grip
- Position the clasp 2–3cm from the top edge of the bag opening for the best closure alignment
- Use an 18mm clasp if you’re unsure — it works for the widest range of bag sizes
-
Match your finish to your D-rings and chain strap for a fully coordinated hardware set
- For bags without a lining, glue a small square of felt or leather behind the clasp position before installing
- Test the magnet alignment before permanently securing the prongs — make sure both halves snap together cleanly
