CraftBlog: Update 004, 3 New Crochet Lime Zipper Pouches

Front Page of CraftBlog UpdatePost 004 by ChameleonStar

Hi, craft lovers!

This is my 4th update post on my crafting studio. I already have 12 almost finished designs! This is going great!

Before we begin, don't forget to check out previous crochet zipper pouch designs of Angelika, Eloise and Gisela!

I'd been snooping on Pinterest to look at some ideas and made a list with at least 40 more notions I wanted to incorporate in my future designs. This is gonna be a lot of work and a lot of fun~

I finished all 3 lime pouches you've seen in my previous post and decorated them with crochet ornaments, roses, ribbon flowers, beads and embroidery work. I started three more zipper pouches and they took me a while to finish, but I had a couple of audiobooks to listen to, so one assisted another just perfectly.

Here's a collection of crochet flowers with beadwork I implemented on two of my lime zipper pouches.

Coco and Taya Crochet Zipper Pouch/Clutch Bag

Overall two lime zipper pouches have similar motives to them, but I wanted to make one of them more bright and shiny, and the other one needed to be more conservative and have down-to-earth style with small decorative objects around main flowers.

I love how it turned out and had lots of playful time with both of them, although it's amazing how many hours you need to put into one little pouch with all the small decorative components on it. However, it is definitely worth it.

Here's the first one: this is Coco.

Penelope Crochet Zipper Pouch/Clutch Bag

The third lime zipper pouch is in a completely different style, and the design brings out fresh and colorful shades of pink, which look stunning on the lime background. The little white elements brought the pink color even more upfront.

Really proud of the design, and every time I look at the project it makes me feel really nice about the whole work I'm doing, even though there is a lot to learn and do up ahead the road.

Now about new projects.

New crochet projects

I started 3 completely new zipper pouches in different colors and slightly different sizes and hope to finish the decoration soon, so that I could switch onto next ideas I have in my mind.

Here's a sneak peek at future projects.

Really love how designs unravel little by little and feel more confident and comfortable with each next one, which is super cool.

Keep your mind sharp and have peaceful thoughts everyone!
Have a fantastic bag day!

Sizes and Types of Crochet Hooks

If you’re just learning how to crochet, it's obvious you'd want to know about sizes and types of crochet hooks. Until you've worked with crochet hooks for a while, you won’t know which you prefer better, that is why you should experiment and buy at least a couple of them. Also, below you can find Crochet Hook Conversion Chart to help you out when you don't know which yarn to use with which hook size. A crochet hook has a slender handle with a hook at one (or sometimes both) ends. It is used to pull thread or yarn through loops to create crochet stitches. Materials, sizes and handles can be very different. Each kind has its own benefits and disadvantages; it all depends on the comfort, price and the ease of use. A crochet hook can also be used to pick up dropped knitting stitches, thread beads onto string or create hairpin lace. The crochet needles vary from small to larger sizes; each needle works with different weights of yarn. And just like with a knitting ...

CraftBlog: Update 005, Upgrades of 3 Previous Designs

Hi, craft lovers! This is my 5th update post on the studio. This time I wanted to share the insides of finishing work of Belladonna, Gloria and Petra. Instead of working on new projects, I've decided to finish my first three crochet zipper pouches/clutch bags designs. So this is the sneak peek at the more polished versions of Belladonna, Gloria and Petra, however, I do plan to make some adjustments in the future. I've blogged about these 3 projects before in my Update #001 post, so if you want to check it out the link to the post is here. Belladonna Crochet Zipper Pouch/Clutch Bag With Belladonna I did some embroidery work and added the lining. Three new additional colors popped up nicely and played well on the lime pouch body. I really enjoy the final view of Belladonna, it has a very fresh, sparkling, somewhat spring flavor to it.

CraftBlog: Update 009, 3 New Crochet Zipper Pouches

Hi, craft lovers! This is my 9th update post on the studio. All of the projects are doing great and there's been a lot of work done. I finished decorating some of my previous designs, started a couple new ones and did a lot of lining work for my previous projects. Today I want to share 3 new crochet projects in their finished look. Their names are Ariete, Luna and Léonie. All of them have quite a sweet and soft touch, and they were all inspired by warm spring thematics. Ariete Crochet Zipper Pouch/Clutch Bag The design was inspired by the blooming of spring flowers and I wanted to add a bit of cool freshness to the whole picture. The clutch design was made in hope to bring some white floral elegance into everyday life. The body of the clutch is quite simple and most of the work was focused on decoration. I wanted to try out some 2-side colors ideas for some time now and am very happy about it coming alive like that~ I chose royal blue color for one side and the borders and crepe ...
