I am having so much fun making these themed Heart Pouches! They are such a quick and easy project. Great for last minute gifts and even favors. So far I’ve made a pencil themed one, and now a flag one!
The Heart Pouch Pattern is available in my Etsy. They are the perfect size for gift cards, candy, and small gifts.
Originally I had planned to make this flag heart mod in May for the summer patriotic holidays, but with the Olympics this year a few of you beat me to it! So here it is.
Materials:
- H 5mm hook
- Cotton or Acrylic Yarn in Red, White, and Blue. I used I Love This Cotton from Hobby Lobby
- Heart Pouch Pattern found in my Etsy.
- ¾” – 1” buttons. I used these.
Pattern:
Make pouch as directed in the pattern with the following color changes.
Carry the red and white up the side of the join instead of fastening off after each change to make it easier.
Rounds 1-2: Red
Rounds 3-4: White
Rounds 5-6: Red
Rounds 7-8: White
Rounds 9-10: Red
Remaining Rounds: Blue. ****It is important to still do the SLST’s in the side of round 10 even though you are using a different color. It’s not noticeable and it helps with the roundness of the bumps.
Fasten off and weave in all ends.
Optional: embroider stars in the blue part.
You can also make the pencil version found here!
And one of my favorite parts about this pattern is the seamless look! It works up in one piece and the only sewing required is for the button.
