A traditional snowflake motif worked in stranded colorwork — detailed and striking, with a charted repeat that builds into something really satisfying.

The Snowflake Chalk Bag is knit in the round from the bottom up. The top edge folds over to hold an adjustable cinch cord, and the finished bag is lined in fleece to keep chalk dust contained. It works just as well as a dog treat pouch or small cinch bag — clip it to your harness or your leash.
