Easily Line Your Crochet Pouch Without Sewing
If you want a more polished look, you can line your easy crochet pouch pattern with fabric and sewing, but I found a much simpler way.
I grabbed a pre-made canvas pouch with a zipper and used a little fabric glue to attach my crochet piece right on top.
No sewing, no stress, and it still gives your small crochet bag pattern nice structure. It’s perfect for a quick crochet project that looks finished and professional without extra work!
