Great! Here’s a step-by-step guide to make the Pinwheel Crochet Pouch like the one in the image:
🧶 Materials Needed:
- 4 colors of yarn (similar to pink, purple, yellow, and mint green)
- Crochet hook (size suitable for your yarn, usually 2.5mm – 4mm)
- Scissors
- Yarn needle
🌟 Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Make the Center Pinwheel (Triangular Wedges)
We will crochet 6 triangular sections, alternating colors.
Start with Color A (Pink)
- Magic Ring
- Row 1: Ch 1, make 1 single crochet (sc) into the ring. Turn.
- Row 2: Ch 1, 2 sc into the same stitch. Turn.
- Row 3: Ch 1, 2 sc in first stitch, 1 sc in next stitch. Turn.
- Row 4: Ch 1, 2 sc in first stitch, sc across. Turn.
👉 Continue increasing 1 stitch at the beginning of each row until you have a triangular wedge shape (approx. 10 rows or desired size).
Change to Color B (Yellow)
- Join yarn at the magic ring center.
- Repeat the same triangular wedge steps.
Repeat
- Alternate colors (Color C: Purple, Color D: Mint) until you have 6 wedges forming a full circle.
2. Join the Wedges
- Crochet each wedge separately and join them by stitching their edges together, forming a circular pinwheel.
3. Border Round
- Using Mint color (or your choice), single crochet (sc) around the entire circle to create a neat edge.
- Place 2 sc in each corner or sharp section to avoid puckering.
4. Creating the Pocket/Pouch
- Make 2 identical pinwheel circles.
- Place them together, wrong sides facing in.
- Single crochet around the edges to join them, leaving a small opening at the top (as shown in the image).
5. Finishing
- Weave in all yarn ends with a yarn needle.
- You can add a small button, zipper, or simply use the opening to tuck items like money, coins, or small gifts.
✨ Optional:
- Add a chain to make it a keychain or small bag.
- Adjust wedge sizes for a larger pouch.
