Crocheted Mini Dice Bag

Worsted (9 wpi) ?
5.5 mm (I)

This pattern is available for free.

Supplies:

Yarn: Stick to a simple worsted weight yarn. I prefer acrylic for its easy care, but if you want cotton or wool, have at it. You don’t need much for this little bag.

A little bit of yarn in a contrasting color, some ribbon, or some cording: For making the drawstrings.

Crochet Hook: If you are already experienced at crochet, use a hook one size smaller than you would normally use with worsted weight yarn. You want the bag to stand up on its own and be tightly woven, but not so tight that it loses its softness. If you’re new, use the hook size recommended on the yarn label. I make my dice bags using a size I (5.5mm) hook.

Stitch Marker: To keep track of the first stitch of each round. If you don’t have stitch markers, a bobby pin or French wire or lever-back earring will work too!

Optional: Two large-hole beads for decorating the ends of the drawstrings.
