Pattern Notes
-Beg chs do not count as a st unless otherwise specified.
-The first st of every round is always the same st as joining.
-It is very important that you try to meet gauge due to the size of the project. Not only will your project not fit into your kiss clasp well, you do not want your holes in your sts to be too large or your items will fall out (as we are not lining the pouch).
-I have included a YouTube video tutorial to help with the most difficult portions of this pattern.
