a pouch I crocheted for some cards! i am very proud of the closure. designed it myself

i always struggled with closures on pouches that aren't suitable for drawstrings. i have 1 that just barely fits the cards and they don't fall out cause of the tension. this one though, the cards actually have enough room.

what i did was i made a flap, i chained some, i attached chain to the other side of the flap, and cut the yarn. then i chained a bunch, surface crocheted a line onto the pouch, and then started chaining again, making sure that the points at which the chains "detach" are about where the loop attached to the flap is fully stretched out.

if this makes you go "huh" and you'd like to understand, feel free to ask

closeup of the yarns, i used 2 cotton crochet threads and 1 fingering weight cotton, held together, it's such a beautiful effect, don't you think?
