Here’s my pattern for a Zelda inspired drawstring bag. Use it for dice, use it as a gift bag, use it to keep your crochet bits in – it’s entirely up to you!

I wanted to create a really simple example of tapestry crochet, that still looked worth its weight in rupees. The pattern works using BLO (back loops only) single crochet stitches for the main body. Fairly simple colourwork using only two colours and a basic geometric pattern, worked from a chart.

Materials:
Sports weight yarn (yellow and green)
3.5mm crochet hook
Stitch markers
Yarn needle

Stitch Knowledge:

Ch = Chain
Sc = Single crochet
hdc = Half double crochet crochet
dc = Double crochet
Slip st = Slip stitch
** = a repeating stitch pattern
