Materials Needed
- 5mm & 4mm crochet hooks
- Medium-weight yarn (color of your choice)
- Magnetic buttons
- Metal plate
- Stitch markers
- Yarn needle
- Small rings for the strap
- Scissors
Step 1: Create the Rectangular Panel
Begin with a foundation chain using a 5mm hook.
Switch to a 4mm hook to work the body.
Crochet single crochets (SC) across the foundation chain.
Turn and repeat rows of SC to your desired length and width.
Fasten off and weave in ends.
Step 2: Add the Cross Pop Stitch Border
Using a contrasting yarn (optional), edge the panel with SC.
Increase at each corner to keep the shape from curling.
Follow with cross-pop stitch rows around the panel edges for texture.
For Step 3: Attach Metal Plate and Magnetic Buttons
On the back center of the panel, sew the first part of the magnetic button.
Position the metal plate on the flap area and sew securely.
Attach the second magnetic button directly above the metal plate.
Step 4: Build the Side Panels
Begin with the left panel using SC stitches.
Shape the corner using decreases as needed.
Mirror the same process for the right panel.
Sew both side panels to the main body using yarn and a tapestry needle.
Step 5: Create the Puff Stitch Strap («Popor Trap»)
Make a chain to your desired length for the strap.
Work puff stitches across for a textured, durable finish.
Attach metal rings to each end of the strap.
Connect the strap to the side panels using the rings.
