If you like to crochet bags like me, you will like this small crochet pouch, it is an easy pattern to make as well. The bag is designed in a way that it can be used in reverse. The post stitches really add some interesting aesthetic to it.
This crochet bag is worked from down up, it uses the single crochet for the base then double and single crochet for the body. The single crochet stitches are what give the body its aesthetic because they are post stitches.
