Those egg lip balms are cute and all, but they don’t easily fit in a pocket. And they have a way of falling to the bottom of a purse.

This little thing takes less than an hour to stitch up. It’s worked in all single crochet in a simple spiral. If you know how to increase and decrease, you know all the techniques necessary to complete this project.

The holder is begun at the bottom and worked towards the top. A small lobster claw clasp is added in the penultimate round, which secures it nicely.
