Greetings my dear Needleworkers! Welcome to a new creative Monday. I am pleased to greet you again and share with you a new crochet project. This time it is a case to carry makeup in your purse.
A few weeks ago I found a box with some yarns and wools that I brought from Peru that I didn't remember I had. I was very excited when I found 3 balls of this mixed material that I love so much. It is a wool of three strands of different thickness and texture that together create a very nice material to knit projects like bags, purses and cases.
As I was tidying up my room I was thinking about what I would like to do with this material. It had to be something that I could use and make the most of, since this type of thread is not available in my city. So, when I realized that my makeup case was already a bit deteriorated, I decided to get down to work and knit myself a new cosmetic case with this beautiful material.
To make the fabric firmer and therefore much more resistant to the case, I decided to weave it using a cotton cord inside the fabric. As the material has three strands, I had to use a number 4 aluminum needle to be able to knit it in a more fluid way. I knitted the whole cosmetic case in a spiral using only single crochet, until I reached the desired height and to close I knitted three rows in a fuchsia color to give it a more feminine touch.
The woven part is now complete, just need to add a sturdy lining and a good zipper, but I will be completing that later in the week. The nice thing about this project is that I was able to knit again after several weeks of rest. I really missed being able to pick up a needle and create something from scratch. I'll say goodbye for today, wishing you a great week full of blessings.
