Diamond Pouch Free Crochet Pattern

Welcome back to my blog my crafty friends!

I love to create handmade accessories, and especially anything that can be also useful and functional.

We all know that there's nothing like having too many purses, clutches or pouches, right? That is why I'm sure you're going to love today's project!

I designed for you a very simple and easy to make pouch, embellished with beautiful diamond granny squares!

I use the pouch as a crochet hooks case, but it could work perfectly as small makeup bag, or pencil case to keep in your everyday purse!

The Diamond Pouch is worked in 5 separate pieces: one Pouch, and 4 Diamond Granny squares that are later sewn on the Pouch itself.

The Diamond Pouch is made with Wool Ease® yarn by LION BRAND YARN!

Warm and soft, this wool yarn is gorgeous. It comes in more than 30 different colors to choose from!

***You can purchase a downloadable AD-FREE PDF of the pattern with more than 60
