A Drawstring Pouch—My first project

Materials used:
Two(2) cotton yarns
3.5 millimeter yarn hook
Stitch marker
Scissors
Darning needle

This is my first time crocheting. I’ve loved the art of crocheting for a long time and i’m glad i can start learning now. So please pardon me if there are any mistake(s)

Procedure-


I got my yarns ready, i used the colors red and peach(light orange-pink). I chose these colours because i had a feeling they would go so well together….


Then i made a loop and twenty-one (21) foundation chains, after that i did one double crochet in each foundation chain or stitch and placed a stitch marker into the very first stitch.


So basically, i worked double crochet stitches in all rounds(chain 2, double crochet all round, slip stitch and repeat)


The progress of my work

I made a total of ten(10) rounds using just the red


Colour change
I introduced the peach colour in round 11 and did a normal slip stitch but with the peach colour


Made the first round with the peach-color yarn


And then the second round


Curvy change
For the 13th round, i added a twist by make small curves(for a flowery look)


**Using a darning needle, i weaved in the tail


Tadaaa..
After i weaved it in, my purse was 90% ready


Drawstring
For a beautiful contrastion, i used the red yarn for the drawstring. I made a chain long enough to go round my purse and extend a bit (a bunch of foundation chains)-made a hundred foundation chains


Used my darning needle again to pull through the double crochet


Tied them together like a knot


For my final step, i added a bow on it


Put some of my skincare products in it, totally in love with the outcome and i hope you are too.
