Blossom Stitch Small Crochet Glasses Pouch
This crochet glasses pouch is designed to fit a small pair of sunglasses. It’s just what you need to keep your glasses safe inside a larger bag or purse. It helps to prevent accidental scratches from other items.
The glasses case has a nice lacy design and is a perfect match for the Blossom Summer Beach Bag. Make one, or make them both and hit the beach in style.
As mentioned, it fits a small pair of glasses, but if you need a larger size, you could easily use a slightly thicker yarn and a larger hook size.
Another option is to reduce the number of rounds for a cool soap saver.
