Small Mesh Drawstring Bag Crochet Pattern | Posh Pooch Designs

Small Mesh Drawstring Bag Crochet Pattern

 By Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs

This Bag measures 

12 inches long by 18 inches around.

I made this bag for me.

I needed a bag to carry my 

Flip Flops, Swim cap, goggles and swim gloves.

I can toss my gear in it, then

I can toss it in my gym bag.

I wanted it to be mesh so I could take

 it out of my gym bag and hang it up to dry,

when I get home.

I designed it to have a draw string, 

easy to open and close, 

even when the bag is wet.

Granny Squares Crochet Pattern Collection | Posh Pooch Designs

Granny Square Crochet Pattern Collection 

by Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs

Do You Love Granny Squares?

Do You call them Granny Squares or Afghan Squares?

I had a nice lady tell me mine were not granny granny squares, because they were not the "Traditional Granny Squares".

I am okay with that.

 I do not consider myself or my Crochet Patterns traditional.

These are all Granny Square Patterns designed by me.

Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs

And all have photo tutorials to help you.

Just click the name of the Pattern,

 it is the link to the Free pattern on my blog.

1. May Flowers Granny Square 12 inch 

2. Unbroken Hearts 12 inch Square

3. American Flag Granny Square 12 inch

4. Colorado Strong Granny Square 12 inch

6. Sweet Little Pumpkin - Circle to Square

6 inch Granny Square

7. Christmas Wreath Granny Square 12 inch 

I do love Granny squares.

 I think making granny squares is the best way to use up
 left over yarn. I just make a few each week or so and toss 
them in a basket. then when I have a few minutes, 
I stitch a few together.

Before long you have made a fun, colorful, 
and useful throw or blanket.

It is also a fun way to try new stitches and techniques.

Save your yarn swatches and mix them in.

What a wonderful unique gift.

And Crocheted a Coaster.

I am having so much with the

Jimmy Beans Wool

Beanie bags.

It is so fun to anticipate what will be in the bag.

Opening up my mail box and seeing that bag in there.

Wondering what yarns, patterns and extras will be in there.

And Getting to Try out fun new yarns and textures,

And The Super Cute Canvas Bags.

Perfect for storing pens, buttons, scissors,  

needles, and other notions.

I Love that they are canvas reusable zipper bags.

Colorado Flag Ear Flap Beanie Hat | Posh Pooch Designs

Colorado Flag Earflap Beanie

 Crochet Pattern By

 Sara Sach of  Posh Pooch Designs

Doesn't my Model look good in his 

New Blond hair do?

hee hee, I Love it.....anyway!

I had not intended to design a Ear flap Beanie Hat

 For Our Colorful Colorado Series,

But I have gotten so many people asking for it,

 that I felt I had to.

I designed the pattern in 3 sizes, like the

 other Colorado beanie hats.

I added a regular pompom but you can use a 

fuzzy pompom is wanted.

 And I had to add the the thick braids. 

An Ear flap Beanie just has to have braids.

This hat is perfect for any team or school colors.

It is warm and comfy, and also perfect

 for the Colorado Lover!

And It is very easy to stitch up.

I Love the traditional styles, but I also love all

I also like to mix and match the different styles.
