Drawstring pouch "Laguna" 🐬

A bright knitted drawstring pouch — a practical accessory for storing small items, cosmetics, or a gift. The fabric is worked in stockinette with lace lanes (yarn-over holes), which makes the piece look lighter and more interesting than a plain "bag." The top is gathered with a cord and tassel; the color is vivid, "marine," and looks good at home or on the go. Overall the work is neat, but the finish (cord and gathering) can be made more "shop-quality," which would immediately raise the item a level.

Knitting method and techniques

Knitting needles; knit in the round in stockinette with lace lanes and a drawstring casing with a cord.

Materials

• Yarn of medium thickness (approximately 200–250 m/100 g), bright blue — about 70–110 g (depending on pouch size).
• Circular needles 3.5–4.5 mm (adjust to gauge).
• Tapestry needle for weaving in ends.
• Scissors, stitch markers.
• For the cord: the same yarn (or a cotton cord); optional bead/stopper.

Care instructions

Hand wash or delicate machine wash at 30°C in a laundry bag. Use a mild detergent without bleach. Do not wring — press out in a towel. Dry flat, shaping as needed. Steam/block through a damp pressing cloth; do not press the iron directly. Store with the cord slightly loosened so the top does not deform.
