Ameena's Potion bag


This was designed for Ameena to put her potion bottle in for Whispered Tales. When she mixes a potion it only lasts for a short amount of time and this pouch will allow her to carry it around with her until it can be used.

It is a very simple design using Cotton 4ply. 12 tr into a slip knot ring to make a very secure tight start to a circle. Next Row 2 tr into each. Next row 1 tr into the single tr and 2 tr into the 2 trs to form the rough circle shape. In this case I completed total of 3 rows before forming the sides. To build up on the sides of the pouch make single tr through the top of the stitches from the previous row. Where there are 2 tr then t tr through both stitches – this makes a straight cylinder. Trebles for the next9 rows then 1 tr 1 chain miss tr to form an eyelet row for the cord. 1 row of dc into each tr and ther spaces between. Final fancy scalloped row by 5 tr into 2nd tr miss 1 tr then slip stitch. The scallops are then added around the bottom to complete the flower look.

Twisted cord of DK cotton used for Luca’s potion pouch and the 4ply used here.
