Note: Dr. Carol Ventura has generously allowed us to share her tapesty crochet project with you. In the next issue, we'll give the instructions for a tapestry crochet basket. For more information please take a minute (or two) and visit her site at: Dr. Carol

This project will introduce you
to some basic tapestry crochet techniques. The base is crocheted first,
then the rounds move upwards to form the walls. The motif is six stitches
wide, so the total number of stitches in the base is a multiple of six.
It is possible to make a larger pouch with the same design motif simply
by increasing the size of the chain by six stitches. Feel free to substitute
another motif, just be sure that the total number of stitches in the chain
is a multiple of the number of stitches in your motif. Any type of thread
or yarn can be used for tapestry crochet. This pouch was crocheted with
mercerized cotton thread, but feel free to substitute another thread or
yarn.
