Summer Stripes Sunglasses Case - Part of the Charity Stash Bash CAL
Hello friends, it's time for May's Charity Stash Bash pattern (I know it's a little late) and this month we have this super cute sunglasses case. This pattern may also be used as a pretty pencil case or to keep your hooks in. I will be making these as pencil cases for the shoe box appeal and adding some colouring pencils to go with them.
If you would like to know more about the Chaity Stash Bash CAL you can check out the links below.
Sc around until you reach the top right corner.
Now working in front piece only, surface crochet across the top sts of round 4 until you reach the other side, sl st to first sc. Turn.
Sew
on button.
Pin it for later...
I hope you enjoy the pattern and if you join in with the CAL be sure to post your photos in the Facebook Group or use #lullabylodge on instagram.
Take care for now...
