It has a simple drawstring closure and can be provided with slip and/or elasticated pockets both externally and internally. Make yourself a practical set of pouches with a clean, graphic aesthetic and an interesting method of construction. Beautiful and a seriously enjoyable sew! Sizes? There are four sizes, Mini, Small, Medium & Large, with strap and pocket options to play with. Pockets? Externally and internally you can choose to add a Circle Slip Pocket and/or a Circle Elastic Pocket. Straps? The medium and large sizes can be provided with either a side strap or a pair of hand straps. (The large ENCIRCLE Pouch makes for a lovely, compact project bag!) The lining and outer bags are made using the same construction method, keeping it simple while at the same time giving you options to play with.
Skill Level: Confident Beginner
The ENCIRCLE Pouch construction is straightforward but a little unusual – the trickiest element in making the ENCIRCLE Pouch is handling the curve of the front and back circles, the mini size being the trickiest. The drawstring closure is a lovely and easy closure technique to learn and the pattern also includes and elasticated and a slip pocket. The lining and outer bags are made with the same construction, with pocket options that can be used internally and externally.
