#needleworkmonday :: Meet Candy, the drawstring pouch ๐ญ
This is Candy, a drawstring pouch that was newly crocheted following this cool pattern from MiCrocKnit Creations. I changed a couple of things here and there as well as omitted the top of bag section.
It all started with a candy coloured yarn and a magic ring. Then, it was 7 sc into the magic ring, following the section "Base of Bag - Increase rnds". I will not describe the pattern here but you can refer to the website directly to find out the details.
Once I reached the diameter that I wanted, I started to crochet the body of the bag following the "Body of Bag - Fans and Posts stitch" section.
I added as many rows as I like and after about 5 rows, I changed to a gray yarn and continued the pattern for that row 6.
Then, I changed to a pink yarn and continued the pattern for row 7 before changing back to the gray yarn for the last row 8. Once all that is done, I fasten off and weaved in all the loose ends.
Next, I chained the remaining of the candy yarn into 2 drawstrings and I weaved the drawstrings in through the holes of the stitches, one drawstring weaved in from each side of the pouch in full circle.
Once the pouch is all set, my googleyes took their positions and got the pouch filled up:
And with the drawstrings tightened at both ends, the googlyeyes started moving closer to each other.
Then, it was time to DANCE!

I love how you are having fun with what you make and using the googly eyes :D Love the ending "Time to dance" hehe. That was awesome.
Hehe thank you @foxyspirit :) It was fun doing this!
So cute! With the eyes the pouch reminds me of an octopus with very short arms ๐๐ Or a hipster octopus with a little bun - soooo cute! And, the drawstrings are generally a very interesting construction, I have never seen them woven in (ok, maybe because I have never made a pouch ๐)
Your description is super clear, and I love your yarn choice, it really reminds me of candy.
