This pattern guide will teach you how to make the crochet exterior of the Alpine Pouch. As for adding the inner lining and zipper, I give a brief description of the process and tools needed at the end of this guide. The pattern guide walks you through the instructions for creating the alpine stitch, so you do not need to know it ahead of time. I also include plenty of photos for reference. If you have any questions you would like answered before purchasing, please feel free to send me a message and I will do my best to get back to you as soon as I can. 50% of the revenue at KayCrochets is donated to the CPMC cancer center in San Francisco to help support cancer patients. Thank you and happy crocheting!
