Overview

Use up small yarn scraps with the Tomato Pouch. It makes for an adorable bag charm and can hold a multitude of things from lip gloss to earphones to dog treats, all easily accessible when attached to your bag.
This project works up quickly, starting from the bottom and shaping with strategic increases followed by some decreases. The top is decorated with small leaves, and the pouch is finished off with an i cord strap to easily add it to your bag.

Size
The pouch measures roughly 11cm at the widest point and 10cm from the bottom to the draw string.

Yarn
The sample is knit using a DK yarn for the main body and a fingering yarn for the draw string and leaves.
1 pouch takes roughly 15g/35m of Yarn A (red) and 8g/32m of Yarn B (green). With one ball of each colour, you should be able to make up to 3 tomato pouches.

Needles
-3.5mm needles for the pouch; you can use DPNs or needles long enough for magic loop
-3mm needles for the leaves and drawer string.

Notions
-stitch markers

Gauge
27 stitches x 38 rows = 10cm / 4 inches using 3.5mm needles. Since this is an accessory getting exact gauge isn’t necessary. You’re aiming for the fabric to be fairly dense and structured.
