Free Crochet Santa Sack PatternWHAT WILL I NEED?

You can use any yarn size for these little Santa sack pouches. Just use a suitable hook size for your yarn. Exact gauge is not important for this project. If you are making them as part of your Santa Gonk outfit, keep to the same yarn weight and hook size you have used for the Gonk.

I have used Aran/Worsted weight acrylic yarn with a 5mm hook. My pouch measures approximately 3” in diameter to the widest point by 2.5” high. A nice handful size, a little smaller than a tennis ball. I have filled mine with traditional Christmas chocolate coins.

I have used Stylecraft Special Aran in colours Lipstick (1246) and White (1001). 

You only need a small amount of yarn for these pouches. They would make great scrap yarn projects, as you can make them in any colours just as little pouches for any occasion.

Add the tie string:

Take a length of White yarn (approx. 20” long) and use your yarn needle to weave this in and out of the ch1 spaces made in R11. finishing by coming out at the same place you started. With the pouch fully open, tie the 2 ends of the yarn together in a knot, approximately 2 inches away from the pouch. Cut the ends approximately 1.5” along from the knot. Tie a knot at the end of each of these cut ends to prevent unravelling.

Fill and fasten your pouch: 

Fill your pouch with your chosen treats and pull on the knot to close your pouch. Fasten off by tying the inner strands in a bow. Fold one side in half to form a loop, bring the other side over this loop and through in between (above the first loop and in front of the pouch), forming the second bow loop. Pull tight on both bow loops until the knot rests against the pouch. To undo, simply pull down on the knot.
