Great video and pattern! Just made a cute blue one and didn’t take too long. Pro tip: if you want the drawstrings to be the same colour yarn as the pouch, cut about 16-20 inches x2 strings of yarn before you start to avoid having to cut and rejoin yarn in the middle of your work
Congratulations on your first RUclips videos!! Very well done. Teaching this beautiful stitch and how to make a draw string closure at the same time is perfect! I’m excited to get started!! Keep up the good work!😊
Just finished the project, i had a thicker yarn and used a 5,5 mm crochet hook, started with a chain of 14 and made 18 rows to reach the same size as you. thankyou for the tutorial
My gauge ended up way different from yours, so I had to do 24 rows and probably would've preferred having 16 chains in my foundation. To fix it, I just added extra rows along the sides before I put the two panels together, but I'll get it right the first time on my next pouch! Thank you for sharing!
Ohh yeah, gauge can make a big difference but this pattern is definitely easy to customize in terms of size so I'm glad you were able to find a workaround for your first pouch! I hope you enjoyed making it :)
The hardest part is the drawstring. I had to cut it 3 x to get it long enough to crochet over. Not sure how yours was only 16 inches. In the end mine was too long so I cut it but I had to start out extra long to crochet around. Not sure why. I did starting chain 12. Love this trinity stitch!!
Tried this yesterday as a beginner and I'm so happy how it came out, thank you! The purple yarn of that last pouch is sooo pretty, do you remember what it was called or where i could find a similar one? ❤
When you do your foundation chain of 10, do you count the initial chain on your hook as 1? I keep coming out with an extra chain at the end of the first row of trinity stitches.
Make a slip knot (1 loop on the hook) and then count 10. So technically you will have 11 chains (but the one on your hook doesn't count). I hope this helps!
When she says this will be our last group of trinity stitches she must have stopped the video and skipped a whole set. I tried the 7 times before realizing what happened. It only shows her making 3 sets of trinity stitches but she really is making 4. @dogwood.crochet, you need to fix this. I think it’s what’s messing people up
@@Melmac8282 I thought I was doing something wrong but you might be right. I’m still really confused and I still have 10 stitches at the end of the first row. Boutta give up. This doesn’t feel like it’s for beginners if there are steps being skipped. I’ve spent way too long on this
Oh no! It's definitely tricky at first, but keep going I'm sure you're doing great! Trinity stitch is not simple, so that's amazing you're doing it as a beginner!
@@brilee511 You should have two chains at the end and you work into the one you just worked into, and the last two. Then do a sc into the same one. I have a tutorial that goes more in depth on trinity stitch if that would be helpful! ruclips.net/video/uww0uoenYf0/видео.html
ive tried to follow this very beginning but every time i try i end up with an extra stitch at the end of the first row after the single crochet 😅what am i doing
Im so confused, I really love the pattern and it goes well however somehow I lost a stitch so It was shrinking and then I just decided to start over and now after 10 rows I’ve suddenly added a stitch! I don’t understand why?? Any ideas?
One thing I'm thinking is it is likely to lose or add stitches with the first and last sc of the row. So maybe you forgot to do a sc in the first st before doing a trinity stitch, or maybe you forgot to do a sc in the same as the last trinity st
Yes, it could have to do with your tension and/or the weight of the yarn you are using. Different cotton yarns can be considered a #4 weight, but can vary (I even saw this with my own yarn that was the same brand but a different color). I would suggest increasing the number of foundation chains to make yours wider!
You should have 9 stitches at the end of the first row. So make sure you did the single crochet in the second ch from hook and the other single crochet at the end of the row. If you're still having trouble, please let me know and I'm happy to help troubleshoot!
That's a great question! I just found this great tutorial on how to crochet trinity stitch in the round. The part where you join is different, but otherwise it's the same sc3tog, ch 1 repeat. ruclips.net/video/jbascphxlQI/видео.html

Thank you so much! It means a lot. I hope you enjoy making the sunglasses pouch :)
Ooh! Love how quick and easy this is to make! Perfect gift too! Thank you for sharing ♥️
Thank you! Yes, it’s the perfect gift!! I gave one to my mom for her birthday and I’m going to give one to my dad for Father’s Day!
Great pattern! Works up quickly. Made my first one in a couple hours. Excited to make more. Thanks for sharing.
That's wonderful! I'm so glad you enjoyed it
Loving your video tutorials Shannon. I'm going to give this pouch a go tonight with left over yarn from my C2C Block Stitch blanket.
I'm so glad to hear that!
Just finished the project, i had a thicker yarn and used a 5,5 mm crochet hook, started with a chain of 14 and made 18 rows to reach the same size as you. thankyou for the tutorial
That's awesome!! I'm so glad you liked it!
just added this to my playlist so i make sure to make it! so cute!
Thanks so much! They're so fun and quick to make
I just made two of these, easy and such a satisfying outcome, thanks!!
I'm so happy to hear that!!
Great tutorial and congratulations on your You Tube channel. Very clear and concise.
Thank you so much! :)
Lovely. I am going to do this pattern. Thanks.
Thank you!! I hope you enjoy :)

Great tutorial. I’m wondering what the advantage is of making 2 panels and joining rather than 1 wide panel I fold over?
You could certainly do it that way, I just decided to do two panels for symmetry and to make it simpler to change the size of the pouch :)
Love this pattern! Thanks for the great tutorial ❤
Aww thank you so much!
Thank you! I enjoyed making the case!
I am so glad to hear that!!
I'm really looking forward to making this!
I hope you enjoy! :)
Can’t wait to try making this!
I hope you enjoy! :)
I added 4 more stitches (14) to my chain and did 18 rows and got the gage using the H hook
Perfect!!
The hardest part is the drawstring. I had to cut it 3 x to get it long enough to crochet over. Not sure how yours was only 16 inches. In the end mine was too long so I cut it but I had to start out extra long to crochet around. Not sure why. I did starting chain 12. Love this trinity stitch!!
Huh, I wonder why... either way, I'm glad you got it to work! :)
@@Dogwood.Crochet i think i figured it out! I was crocheting it instead of putting it on top!
@@elainem9774 Ohh that totally makes sense why you would need more than 16 inches! LOL
Interesting, this is very similar to the Star stitch ❤
Yes it is!
Grateful for instructions Thank you !
My pleasure!

I'm so very happy to hear that!! :) The purple yarn is the Parkside colorway from Arcane Fibre Works! It's super soft
You really help inspire my work😊
Aww thanks so much!
This is so pretty ❤
Thank you!

I ended up making it work but I just accepted the fact that I had 10 stitches
For the life of me I chain 10 and keep ending up with 2 extra stitches at the end 😂 #newtocrocheter
Oh no! It's definitely tricky at first, but keep going I'm sure you're doing great! Trinity stitch is not simple, so that's amazing you're doing it as a beginner!
I am as well and I’ve been crocheting since last year - I’m so confused! 🫠

Same. I’ve restarted 6 times and cannot figure it out. I’m about to give up
Love this
Thank you!
So beautiful ❤️❤️❤️ stay connected 💕💕💕💕

I have been trying to make this but mine only measures about 2 1\2 inches wide. Would this be because of my tension on my yarn?
Yes, it could have to do with your tension and/or the weight of the yarn you are using. Different cotton yarns can be considered a #4 weight, but can vary (I even saw this with my own yarn that was the same brand but a different color). I would suggest increasing the number of foundation chains to make yours wider!
@@Dogwood.Crochet Thank you so much!
Nope. Tried multiple times, can’t get this to work. Hook size doesn’t seem to work with this cotton yarn.
Oh no, I'm sorry! If you want more help, please feel free to message me on Instagram @dogwood.crochet and I'm happy to help troubleshoot
On the first row, I only have 8 stitches. Why?
You should have 9 stitches at the end of the first row. So make sure you did the single crochet in the second ch from hook and the other single crochet at the end of the row. If you're still having trouble, please let me know and I'm happy to help troubleshoot!
Could you just work this in the round?
That's a great question! I just found this great tutorial on how to crochet trinity stitch in the round. The part where you join is different, but otherwise it's the same sc3tog, ch 1 repeat. ruclips.net/video/jbascphxlQI/видео.html
Hello! How many grams did you use? :D
I don't have the exact yardage/grams used, but you can get at least 4 pouches from an 113g skein! :)
