Crochet Pattern – FaFa Drawstring Pouch

Each FaFa pouch features a hand-crocheted flower bloom – “FaFa” means flower in Cantonese, a little love letter to my roots.

This crochet pattern guides you through making a charming drawstring pouch made with popcorn flower granny squares, soft lace edges, and dainty little flower-tipped ties. Whether you fill it with trinkets, crystals, or snacks (we won’t tell), FaFa brings a sprinkle of whimsy and warmth to you every day.
