    These could go with the pirate eye patch too...pirate "loot" bags. Or birthday party bags if you have kids that age.

    After seeing these, I had some time to kill and some extra yarn and improvised a similar bag to hold my son's little toys. I gave you credit for the inspiration on my ravelry project page :)

    I love your crochet ideas! I also made your butterfly hat and it's getting rave reviews and several "can you make me one too?" requests! I may use up the yarn I have from the hat I made for my daughter and make a scarf with the butterflies on each end! If I get it done, I'll let you know how it turns out!

    This is my second project from your patterns completed. I made the butterfly hat for a friend's daughter and am now making the mini pouches for my 3 little grand daughters (ages 3, 18 months and 18 months). I am making the pouches in cottontots "doll house" yarn embellished with little hearts in cottontots "country red" hearts. The girls are at an age where they like to have a little purse so I am making the straps short (for safety too).

    Both patterns have come out GREAT! I'm eager to try out the other two hat patterns from June. Thank you so much for sharing these easy (but gorgeous!) patterns with the world!

    This is darling, and would be great for kids to keep their allowance change in, my niece loves to have change so she can buy candy, but with her sticky hands and young-easily distracted mind, it is easy for her to loose the money, so I am making one of these pouches for her mom to keep in her purse just for "Brookie's cash"

    I love these pouches too cute :) I play table top games that require dice and this would be perfect for a dice bag. LOL It also says gift idea.
