Hello my dear needleworkers! I was busy decluttering since we need to go to the other City at my daughter's place. Well, it's such a tiresome job that I need to stop every now and then when I glanced at my crochet materials which triggered my interest again! I planned to have another set of wrist pouch and sling bag for myself.
I started with both since am not decided which to do first.:)
My Pouch
I usually do 2C's when I crochet a pouch to make it thicker. I used the milk cotton thread because it's smooth and soft which I ordered online.
I prefer doing it in spiral as I make a perfect tube when done this way. By the way, the shades are different since I did my crochet at night so bear with me okay🙂.
After circling, I directly made 100 chains and did single chain back and forth and take all to make a handle!
I finished it before I went to sleep.
A petite flower on it will break the monotony.
The following day, I crocheted my bag. I wanted to finish it right away before boredom strikes else it will end up in a box for a long period of time I don't know when. Actually, they're lots of 'unfinished' business stashed inside that big box! Lol!
My Tote Bag
I ordered this cotton twine online. I like the texture and unpolished look making it raw in appearance like a traditional twine made by the natives.
It's quite thick and good for the base part.
I still have the mocha thread which is a good combination. I don't like flashy colors for this.
I finished it after making a 12-inch deep measurement, ending with the white thread.
I was not copying any pattern for my bag. I changed my mind. Instead, I made a slope design to make it look more appealing.
See, it did looked more beautiful, isn't it?
I made a four-segment braided cord for the handles.
That's for the knot for cover.
My finished product! Do you like it guys?
When I travel, I usually put the immediate needs in my pouch such as my coin purse, inhaler, specs, mask,memo pad & pen, tissue paper. Therefore, I don't need to dig deep and find my stuffs when I needed them. So handy!
This is all for now, thank you for passing by my page! Thanks @crosheille for being here all these years and of course, to the rest of the admin.
