Pouches

One of the first sweaters I took apart was
made of this wonderful thick european wool.

I dyed a few hanks of it and the yarn has been hanging 
out in the stash for years now.


I wove off a few small pieces of fabric with the leftover
warp from the poncho.  Inspired by a dear friend, I thought I would give sewing 
a pouch a try.

The first attempt using a purchased pattern was a complete disaster.

After that I decided simple is best.


They aren't perfect, but I love their cheerful quirkiness!

..and zippers aren't as hard I thought..
