Patchwork Fish Pouch · Free Crochet Pattern



Looking for a whimsical but handy project to crochet? You might like this free crochet pattern! 

LINKS


The Patchwork Fish Pouch is a colorful and low-sew drawstring pouch! It is designed using a set of cotton Bonbons® Yarn, which includes 8 different colors. This is the perfect project for exploring different color combinations and making truly unique pouches! 

This pouch makes a lovely handmade gift, as well as a nifty crafts fair product. 


Color Planning Sheet

To help you with planning out your fish pouch design, I've created a coloring sheet that corresponds to the rounds in the pattern! This will allow you to better visualize color combinations and your fish's unique look. Sign up below to get your copy of this free download! 


Yarn

This colorful pouch is designed using Lion Brand Yarn's Bonbons® Yarn! The 'Nature' and 'Beach' color sets are both 2 Fine / Sport weight yarn and 100% cotton. One pouch uses up only one set of Bonbons!


PDF Pattern

The PDF pattern is printable, ad-free, easy to read, contains helpful photo references, and helps support Sweet Softies! (If you enjoy my free patterns, you can consider it as a donation to me when you buy one of my pattern PDFs! It allows me to maintain my blog and continue sharing more free patterns.)
