Croc scale pouch

Hey, this is a time and yarn consuming pattern. The stitch on the body, Crocodile Scale, seriously consume time and yarn. This pattern is made up. The crocodile stitch can be found in Youtube under ‘crocheting crocodile scale’… I think it was from Teressa. The stitch is quite simple and learning from video makes it easier.




I made a mistake using Degas cotton for this pouch. The pouch is quite thick and stiff. A softer yarn like Simge would have shown the stitch better I think. I am going to wash it tomorrow and use softener to try softening the yarn!

  1. Really nice pouch Phavithra.. I first learn about crocodile stitch. Will try it for sure :) Love the pouches, actually i don't think you made mistake, the pouches really look nice and sweet.. degas is quiet nice for making a pouch/bag. From what i notice, when you leave it to air.. after some days .. the yarn will become soft and not too stiff. Can't wait to know the result after applying the softener - Ery@daknit -
