Product description

Crochet Pattern Can Covers "Mexican Beauty" applique + russian doll patch, Upcycling Project

Don't throw away used tin cans! Give them a quick wash in the dishwasher and you've got perfect storage containers.
To ensure they don’t stand out bare and boring, this pattern will help you dress them up in vibrant colors in no time!
In this guide, I'll show you how to crochet the sleeve for two standard can sizes, which can then be adorned with unique “Friiiida” patches.

Store pens, ribbons, trims, buttons, and beads inside. They also serve as flower pot covers, gift wrappings, or simply as pretty decorative items!

In addition to colorful cotton yarns, you will need empty, cleaned tin cans. The pattern provides detailed information about required materials and sizes.

Including BONUS pattern - a gift for you!
As a special bonus, this package includes an additional free PDF crochet pattern titled "Matryoshka Applique", offering an alternative to the Friiidas, allowing you to beautify your cans with little Russian doll patches!

Top Anleitung
Diese Anleitung lässt keinen Fragen offen. Sehr detailliert erklärt und die Tasche ist im Handumdrehen gehäkelt. Hab mit etwas dickerem Garn gehäkelt und etwa 200g verbraucht. Super gut zum Resteverwerten. Vielen Dank für die tolle Anleitung.
