Meet My Third Crochet Baby: The Mini Pouch

I’m proud to announce that my third crochet project was a huge… triumph. 

After finishing my second not-sunflower flower last week, I randomly decided to make a mini pouch to store my leftover cotton. The idea was executed last Saturday—and this was how it turned out: 

I can now imagine how a mother can be so proud of her babies, because that was exactly how I felt upon finishing the drawstring! My stitches looked neat overall, and I was just so, so proud that I didn’t mess it up. 

Confession: I, um, bragged about this to ChatGPT—and it said my beginner pouch looked quite store-worthy already. What a huge boost to my ego. I smiled from ear to ear. 

Tutorials I used: a mini pouch tutorial and another on how to end a chain (for the drawstring). 

What should I do next? I’m even more excited to learn now. (This mini pouch should be labeled: The Motivational Pouch.)
