This is Candy, a drawstring pouch that was newly crocheted following this cool pattern from MiCrocKnit Creations. I changed a couple of things here and there as well as omitted the top of bag section.

It all started with a candy coloured yarn and a magic ring. Then, it was 7 sc into the magic ring, following the section "Base of Bag - Increase rnds". I will not describe the pattern here but you can refer to the website directly to find out the details.

Once I reached the diameter that I wanted, I started to crochet the body of the bag following the "Body of Bag - Fans and Posts stitch" section.

I added as many rows as I like and after about 5 rows, I changed to a gray yarn and continued the pattern for that row 6.

Then, I changed to a pink yarn and continued the pattern for row 7 before changing back to the gray yarn for the last row 8. Once all that is done, I fasten off and weaved in all the loose ends.

Next, I chained the remaining of the candy yarn into 2 drawstrings and I weaved the drawstrings in through the holes of the stitches, one drawstring weaved in from each side of the pouch in full circle.

Once the pouch is all set, my googleyes took their positions and got the pouch filled up:

And with the drawstrings tightened at both ends, the googlyeyes started moving closer to each other.
