Great job, how did you put the zipper in? By hand? or machine?

I had it installed by hand as it's my first attempt and I figured I had better control.

Between this, Marlo's new felted bag and Crocheted Monkey's cell cozy I'm starting to see myself with a stylin bunch of accessories this fall.

Thanks Ally. I just simply created it as I went along. Essentially, just crochet a rectangle to a desired width and double the length. Then fold over.

 

If you want to do an inset compartment (I did an equal piece) which I just picked up from the middle of the rectangle and then crocheted upwards (just pick up one stitch less on each end).

 

Then fold over, and sew through the 3 panels. You can then crochet on any embellishments you want.

 

Good luck!
