    Moogly Fish Plastic Bag Keeper by Pamela Morgan! :) Free #crochet pattern!UPDATE! Moogly fan Pamela Morgan has come up with a fantastic alteration to this pattern, and has generously given me permission to share it with all of you! Instead of making a small pouch, you can make a Fish Plastic Bag Keeper! Her instructions:

    "From Round 14 to 16, continue with this pattern for 22 rows, ending with a Row 12." Et voila!

    It's been SO fun leading this Mystery CAL - even when the model didn't quite cooperate... I hope you had fun too!

        100% cotton is what I used, but any fiber should work. A smooth yarn would be better than something like Homespun or a boucle. Great question, thanks!

        Good question! I think I'd call it beginner to intermediate. I'll include charts and links to stitch tutorials where I can too. And each day there will be a picture of where you "should" be after finishing the day before.

      And just to top off my anticipation? I'm almost to the end of an unrelated project. It closes April 30. No it's-over letdown for me--jump right from the end of one project to the beginning of the next. 🙂

        Not stupid at all! BLO is Back Loop Only. I've linked BLO and hdc to video tutorials here on Moogly, and will do that with other abbreviations as needed. If it's in blue and you don't know what it means or how to do it, just click! 😀

      I've never done this before - how fun! I'm finished with the first one, but I have a question..... you say "At the end of Round 10, break yarn and use seamless join in the 2nd st to finish off." So, are we joining to the second hdc, or are you counting the chain 1 from that round as a stitch and we are joining to the first hdc?

        You'll want to join to the second hdc. This maintains the stitch count for the next section - you can treat the join as a stitch, and have exactly 40 when done. 🙂

        The Crochet Lounge is a facebook group, but you don't have to join to do the CAL (though you can if you want to)! If you're a fan of the Moogly fb page you are welcome to post your pics there, or you can just follow along here on the blog! 🙂

      Tamara,
      I know you have had a little excitement today, but I just have another quick question.
      When you say sew the buttons opposite each other, do you mean opposite of the same side (ie 1 left 1 right) or opposite sides (ie 1 front 1 back)?
      If I don't make since sorry! Migraine this morning, a little scare for my friend and her son, and a huge scare for one of our nephews and a crashed plane, not his thankfully!

      Really enjoyed this CAL!! I agree with some others. It was short and sweet and over before I had time to get bored or distracted. I really liked that about it. Good job!! I finished and still have no clue what it is. What does that say about my imagination!? This is my first finished CAL. I started one once that was a major undertaking and I actually forgot to go back and get more instructions and then I forgot where the CAL was!! Short attention span and even shorter memory!

      If you sew the eyes on the same side it resembles an owl.

      Does this fish do anything, like dispense plastic bags out its mouth or is it just a hanging toy? I'm sorry to be so lame but I need to understand what this darling fish does. Thank you. Betty

        As written it's a simple drawstring pouch - my youngest has filled it with his markers! One person I know is using it to hold their water bottle, another is leaving off the eyes to make it a mermaid dress for a doll, and a third has made a "split tail" so that they can dispense plastic bags out of the bottom for their baby changing table. 🙂

      Leslie, I love the idea of converting it to an owl, too.

      I LOVE this fish!!!!

      I'm a SCUBA diver and I think this would be awesome to take on dives as a "shell bag". Bizarre question, but have you ever used nylon "paracord" to crochet? I am thinking it would be the best option for a salt-water proof bag...

        I've used the thin stuff, like this: http://www.redheart.com/crochet-thread/red-heart-crochet-nylon-size-18 , but not paracord - but I know that some others do, so I think it would work!

      I am at the end of row 14, but I have 3 stitches between last sc and top of ch 3. I have ripped out and repeated so many times. What am I doing wrong? I'm expecting to skip 2 stitches and then sl st in BLO of top of ch 3. I've got an extra stitch in there. Thanks. Trying to make this for my 1.5 year old great niece.

        Hi Pat! It's hard to say without being there to see the project in person, but my best guess is that something got shifted. I'd go ahead and skip all 3 and see how the next round works out.
