Turn up the volume in retro style with this mashup of iconic 80s style and technology. Feed your favorite belt through the loops on the back of the Boom Box Belt Bag to turn it into a hands-free purse, reminiscent of a fanny pack. Keep your credit cards and change managed in the Mix Tape Wallet, which fits neatly inside the Boom Box.

Both of these are simple zipper pouches worked in the round from the base up. Tapestry crochet is used to create the designs, carrying up to three yarns inside the piece as you work. Change colors by working to the final yarn over of your stitch, switch to the new color to complete the final yarn over. Use the tapestry charts as your guide.
