Pattern Instructions
1. Back Panel

- Row 1: Starting from the 3rd chain from the hook, make:
- 1 DC INC in the first stitch (2 DC in the same stitch).
- 1 DC in each chain for the next 8 stitches.
- At the last chain, make 5 DC to round the corner.
- Row 2:
- 1 DC in each chain on the opposite side, crocheting along the other edge of the foundation chain.
- At the last chain, make 3 DC to form the other corner.
- Join: Join the round with a SLST into the first DC. Chain 2 (this doesn’t count as a stitch).
- Rounds 2–4:
Each round expands the panel with increases at the corners:- Round 2: Add 2 DC INC in the same stitch and begin working 8 DC on the edges. Add 5 DC INC at the corners.
- Round 3: Expand the increases further; you will make 10 DC INC around the curved edges and continue stitching 8 DC along the flat sides.
- Round 4: Follow the same format, creating a base large enough for the tissue pouch size.
2. Front Panel
Follow the same steps as the Back Panel, but chain 19 at the start (instead of 12).
Adjust the increases in Rounds 2–4 to incorporate broader edges, but maintain the same round structure. You’ll also incorporate 10 CH to leave an opening.
3. Joining the Front and Back Panels
- Align the panels with the wrong sides facing inward and the right sides outward.
- Slip Stitch (SLST) Join: Insert your hook through the Front Loop of the Front Panel and the Back Loop of the Back Panel.
