On behalf of the Oombawka Design readers, and myself, I would like to Thank Joanita for sharing this adorable free crochet pattern for a Little Treasure Pouch. I know my little ones would love one of these to store all their little treasures in too!
This pattern is so cute and ideal for my Grand daughter, thank you for sharing the pattern.
So cute! This pattern would also make great dice bags for “grown-up” gamers. And one could easily change the look by changing the colors.
