Crochet zipper pouch Suzette

Here is a free pattern for a crochet zipper pouch Suzette. I like the texture of this pouch which I will probably use for my cards. I hope that you will like this crochet zipper pouch too 🙂

The Suzette stitch is very easy to make and it is suitable for beginners. So, this could be a great quick project to practice it! Here I work in continuous rounds, but you can also try working in rows and make this cute coaster Suzette. The stitch looks slightly different depending if you work in rounds or in rows. If you would like to take a look at a tutorial, you can find it here.

Good luck!

Notes

The size of my crochet zipper pouch is 10.0 x 7.5 cm. You will be working in rounds. This pattern uses the Suzette stitch. Photo instructions below show the main steps how to make this stitch: it consists of single and double crochets. It is quite easy and suitable for beginners. You can find a tutorial showing how to sew in a zipper and attach lining here.

Pattern

Start by chaining 27 with blue yarn.

Round 1: To make the first round, you will be working down the chain, then turn and work on the other side of the chain. Make sc in every st of the chain starting from the second chain from your hook. Turn. 1 sc in the end of the chain, make sc in every st (starting with the one you have just worked into; now that st has 3 sc in total) until you come back to the beginning of the chain. 1 sc in the end of the chain. Join with a sl st to the first sc of this round. In total you should have 54 st.

Round 2: Ch 1 (it will count as the first sc). Then make a dc in the very first st. Skip one st and make a sc. Then make a dc in the same st. Continue working in the same way until the end of the round: skip one st, make a sc and then make a dc in the same st. When you are at the end of the round, don’t join with a sl st.

Round 3-16: Make a sc in the top of the very first st of the previous round. Then make a dc in the same st. Continue working in the same way: skip one st, make a sc and then make a dc in the same st. Remember to mark the beginning of each round.

Change to gray yarn.

Row 17-19: repeat round 3.

Finish round 19 with a sc, then make a couple of sl st to even out the edge. Fasten off and sew in a zipper.

Round 1

1. Make 27 chains with the blue yarn. You will start working in the second chain from your hook like it is shown in the picture.

2. So, make a single crochet in the second chain from your hook.

3. Continue making single crochets until the end of the row.

4. Turn your work and make a single crochet in the end of the chain.

5. Then make single crochets in every stitch starting with the one you have just worked into; now that stitch has 3 single crochets in total.

6. Keep making single crochets until you come back to the beginning of the chain.

7. Then make one single crochet in the end of the chain.

8. Join with a slip stitch to the first single crochet of this round. In total you should have 54 stitches.

Round 2

9. Chain one. It will count as the first single crochet.

10. Then make a double crochet in the very first stitch.

11. Skip one stitch and make a single crochet.

12. Then make a double crochet in the same stitch.

13. When you are at the end of the round, don’t join with a slip stitch.

Round 3

14. Instead make a single crochet in the top of the very first stitch of the previous round.

15. Then make a double crochet in the same stitch. Continue working in the same way: skip one stitch, make a single crochet and then make a double crochet in the same stitch. Remember to mark the beginning of each round.

Round 16

16. In round 17 you have to change yarn color. So, don’t finish the last double crochet in round 16: stop when you have two loops on your hook. Then take the gray yarn.
