Base of the Pouch

Body of the Pouch
- Second Round - Back Loop Double Crochet: Chain 1, then make double crochets in the back loop only, creating a border effect.
- Third Round - Single Crochet: Chain 1, then single crochet in each stitch around.
Adding Green Yarn for Leaves: Secure green yarn and chain 2 (counts as a double crochet). Make another double crochet in the same stitch. Skip one stitch, then make two double crochets in the next stitch.
Repeat around.
Adding Red Yarn for Tulips: Attach red yarn between the double crochets from the previous round. Chain 2, then make 4 more double crochets in the same stitch. Create the tulip shape by pulling the loop through the first double crochet. Repeat, skipping a stitch between each tulip.

- Double Crochet Round: Make a round of double crochet.
- Back Loop Double Crochet Round: Repeat the back loop double crochet round to create another border.
