Crochet Dragon Scale & Crocodile Stitch Phone Pouch

Materials Needed:

Five Blind counting yarn
Raffle yarn
3.5 mm crochet hook

Final Size:

First bag: approximately 12 cm x 18 cm
Second bag: approximately 14 cm x 19 cm

Pattern Overview:

The design uses the Dragon Scale pattern, also known as the Crocodile Stitch.
Each row rounds to 48 stitches in the pattern provided in the video.
To make a wider bag, increase the stitch number, ensuring it is a multiple of 6. This keeps the pattern consistent.
Adjusting the height of the bag is possible by increasing or decreasing the number of rows.

General Steps:

Start with a foundation chain:

that is a multiple of 6. This is necessary for the Dragon Scale pattern to work correctly.

First Few Rows:

Begin by establishing the base of the bag, typically with a series of single crochet stitches (or as specified in the detailed steps, which would usually include creating the spaces and structure needed for the Dragon Scale stitches).

Dragon Scale Stitch (Crocodile Stitch):

The specific steps for this stitch involve creating a series of double crochets worked around the posts of a previous row's stitches, creating the scale-like appearance. These are often worked in V-stitch spaces or similar setups.

Continue Adding Rows:

Work the Dragon Scale stitch according to the pattern's specifications. Remember, each round of scales will build on the previous, offsetting to create the staggered, layered scales effect associated with this pattern.
