I didn't use the Ravelry pattern, rather with the idea and inspiration I made up my own design.
This single crochet project uses about 15 grams of 2 ply pearl cotton. The average size is 3 by 3 inches. I had been gifted a package of floral wooden buttons. I think I was supposed to tat with them but they ended up being closures for the Tea Totes.
These little totes work well when you use a small clutch or just slip into your pocket. Not only a sachet of tea fits nicely but here are a few other things to put in your tea tote:
- small tatting project with shuttles
- pills/ medication
- contact lens
- dental floss and picks
- lotion
- lipstick/gloss
- tissue/hanky
- breath mints/candy
- needle case/sewing kit
- sweeteners/condiments
- credit card
- small spray cologne
- Eyeglass cloth
- Band-Aids
- hair clips
- ear buds
- jewelry for travel
- feminine products
- condoms
Very handy. I was a bit puzzled by the tea totes name, aha, it’s to carry a teabag in.
ReplyDeleteThose buttons are beautiful and would have made some of Diane's fabulous button ornaments, but they sure do fancy up those tea totes!!! :)
ReplyDeleteThose tea totes are cute. I have made something like them only longer. They are a case for glasses.
