Pattern Notes
- The organizer is worked from the top down or as separate panels that are joined.
- Pockets are created by folding and sewing, or by working additional layers.
- Flowers and leaves are made separately and sewn on.
- Cotton yarn is ideal because it is absorbent and holds up well in humid environments.
Step-by-Step Overview
- Main Body: With cream yarn, work a long rectangular panel that will form the back of the organizer. Add a hanging loop at the top.
- Pockets: Create three pocket sections in soft blue. Attach them to the main panel at even intervals, sewing the sides and bottom to form deep pockets.
- Stripes & Borders: Add cream and green accent stripes between the pockets for a clean, finished look.
- Flowers & Leaves: Crochet three cream flowers and several sage-green leaves. Sew one flower with leaves onto the front of each pocket.
- Finishing: Weave in all ends and gently block the organizer so it hangs straight.
Care Instructions
Hand wash gently in cold water with mild detergent, or machine wash on a gentle cycle. Reshape while damp and lay flat to dry. Do not tumble dry or iron. Spot clean as needed.
