crochet ~ oops

kossai work from this pattern right now - no video , no progress pictures , just written instructions .
all is good with this , actually ! but there is one problem , which is entirely kossai error .

way . too . big .
seem to have 2 too many stitches in very first round , and that just spiral out into more and more increases than pattern call for . not only that , but also use more comfortable 5mm hook , because neither have 4.5 nor 4.25 - so this should be 3.5 inch base , but would guess easily 5 inch instead .
yeah , insert penis joke here .

anyway . walls of pouch very big and ruffly as result - and not even really sure what to put in here ! just love pouches !
wonder how much longer this yarn will last . all of yarns which kossai have right now , much smaller than typical craft store sizes . not anywhere near yarn chicken , but this will definitely use up lots .

pouch is done !

very happy with this pretty little pouch ! no pictures right now , if at all , so to sum up :
pattern : fairy trinket pouch from rabbit hooker crochet .
body : foresty green worsted acrylic yarn , 5mm hook .
drawstrings : cream microfleece yarn and brown " alpaca style " yarn , 6mm hook .

generally , pouch turn out bigger than pattern intend from some stitch errors . and , in general , plenty of stitch errors . but hey , did all this without video or progress pictures - just written instruction !
as well as that , did also intentionally skip 14th round , was happy with size at 13 rounds .

green yarn is now down to not very much , and body is ... in pain . but very happy pain . pouch ! pouch to hold in hands ! pouch to fill with fun little treasures ! pouch to kiss ! lastly , did leave plenty of room on drawstring yarn to potentially add little charms or beads to tails , if anything will fit . :)
