Coin purse

I made this for my friend's daughter.


Materials
Pink colour wool
contrast colour wool
White/Red beads

Method
The basic principle is = Total No of Dc / no of dc in a grp = no of sides
For eg. 15 dc in the basic chain ring of 6. 2nd row make groups of 3 dc then you will get 5 sides as you work along, which will give a pentagonal shape.
Between each group of 3 dc, work one chain
Next work on the one chain spaces.
The last row can be completed with dc in ch.

Work the pentagonal motif to the required size. Make 2 pieces and then join the sides with slip stiches or single crochets. If required, work a triangular flap using dc. Work a chain of required length from one end and fasten off at the other side. Attach a velcrove piece to the flap. Attach beads to decorate the cute purse.

Happy crocheting!

Crocheted Cushion cover

Materials needed

Wool - 2 colours

Wooden beads or velcrove

Method

Make crocheted granny square motifs - starting with six ch ring and changing to a square motif. Make as many motifs as required for the size of the cover. For example, I have made a cover of size 4X4 motifs. So I had to make 32 motifs. Join the motifs by using a tapestry needle or by threading with crochet needle. I have joined the sides with single crochet stitches and 2 loops have been provided for the buttons. Finally attach the buttons.

Happy crocheting
