tooth fairy bag

[carrie_dyer]

Hey all -
I am trying to find a little drawstring bag pattern. My daughter has a loose tooth and wants me to buy a little bag she can put it in under her pillow.

I foudn this post in crochetville http://www.crochetville.org/forum/showthread.php?t=30723 but couldn't find the leaflet she was talking about. This is what my daughter pickout in a party store that she wanted, but they are too expensive for my budget. If anyone has a pattern they would like to share it would be greatly appreciated.

These look like they would be pretty simple to copy. They look like they are crochet in the round (sc) and seamed at the bottom. For the drawstring row just do a sc1 sk1 around, chain the drawstring the length you need, thread it thru, tie it off and you are in business. I'd use sport weight and a F or G hook, or even thread would work well.

Hope this helps.

If the bags are too large for what you want, I think they would look so cute done in thread!
