Janie Crow: Cafe au Lait & French Linen Beaded Pouches

This project is a great stash buster, with very small amounts of yarn used. The Café au Lait version of the pouch uses 5 shades of organic cotton yarn, and the French Linen version uses 2 main shades and very small amounts of the remaining colours.

We have listed the shades we used to make the pouches and the Hollyhock Flower decoration. In the Café au Lait version no
shade used more than 30g of yarn. To make the French Linen version you will need a ball of each of the 2 main shades and
very small amounts of the other colours. To make the Hollyhock Flower we used very small amounts of 7 yarn shades.
