Camo boys folding wallet

[kazily]

My youngest (7) wanted a wallet in camo yarn. I found the pattern at CPC. It has a place for bills, change pocket & card pocket (a fake credit card for ds lol). I am just getting around to posting it. I made it a few wks ago.

That's really neat! Did you put anything in it to make it stiff so he could put it in his back pocket?

Looks great!!

Froggy, no I didn't stiffen it. Kids jeans have small back pockets so I didn't think it would fit if it was stiff. Even soft it doesn't fit in some of his jeans pockets it will fit in the larger pockets that are close to normal sz back pocket ...but ds doesn't care...he just wanted a "big boys" wallet lol! It fits best in his jeans with side cargo pockets. I think it could be easily stiffened though.

Well duh, I never thought about the size of the pocket in little boys jeans.

Neat idea! They'd make great stocking stuffers for my sons.
