Instructions For Starting Pouch:

Make a Slip Knot:

• Begin by creating a slip knot on your crochet hook.

Chain 9:

• Crochet a foundation chain of nine stitches. Remember not to count the loop on the hook as a chain.

First Row

Single Crochet (SC):

• Start by inserting your hook into the second chain from the hook.

Save

Complete the Single Crochet:

• Yarn over, pull through the chain (two loops on hook), yarn over and pull through both loops on the hook.

Continue Single Crocheting:

• Continue single crocheting in each chain across until the last stitch.

Increase at the End:

• In the last chain, work two single crochets. This increases the stitch count in this section, creating a rounded end.

Working on the Opposite Side

Continue Single Crocheting:

• Move to the opposite unworked side of your foundation chain. Work one single crochet in each chain.

End the Round:

• Continue until you complete the round, counting to ensure there are 16 stitches.

Joining and Building the Pouch

Join with a Slip Stitch:

• Insert your hook into the first single crochet, yarn over, pull through all loops to join.

Start the Next Round:

• Chain one to secure the round.

Forming the Pouch:

Repeat Round:

• For the next round, single crochet in each stitch around.

Continue Rounds:

• Repeat the process until you have completed 14 rounds.

Finishing Touches:

Cut and Weave Yarn:

• Cut the yarn, leaving a tail. Pull the tail through the last loop using your hook and weave in the ends with a darning needle.

Create Drawstrings:

• Cut two lengths of yarn for drawstrings. Weave them between the 13th and 14th rounds, alternating spaces to create a drawstring closure.

Save

Final Adjustments:

Secure the Drawstrings:

• Tie knots at the ends of the drawstrings to prevent fraying and to keep them secure.

Adjust the Pouch:

• Test the opening mechanism to ensure the pouch closes and opens smoothly.
