From the eBook: Presented herein are four decidedly handsome pouches to be worn around the neck, to adorn the wearer. The designs are in their simplest forms, without embellishment. It is the countenance of the crocheter to employ color and decoration through beads, buttons, feathers, pearls and curious objects. Good strong cotton yarn is recommended. Use 6-ply or 8-ply cotton. Each pouch uses approximately 20 to 30 grams or no more than 75 meters of yarn. Instructions are written in US crochet terms.
