Hand Jive Knits

Three lovely sachet patterns for you, and each sachet takes no more than 50 yds! Great for using sock-yarn oddments, and they make wonderful hostess presents, stocking stuffers, or welcome-to-the-neighborhood gifts. A Heart-Shaped Sachet (inspired by a hat designed by Elizabeth Zimmerman), a Looped-Top Sachet Ball, and a Ruffled Flower Pillow Sachet will delight any skill level knitter. The Looped-Top Ball is knit in the round, and the other two are knit flat, and sewn up.

Materials:

Yarn – Approximately 50 yds fingering weight yarn

Needles – US Size 2 (2.75 mm) needles (double point for ball and pillow), US Size 4 (3.5 mm) needles (double point for pillow), size C (2.75 mm) crochet hook for ball, lavender or other fragrance for sachet filler, tapestry needle

Gauge: With US size 2 (2.75 mm) needles about 7 st/inch in stockinette stitch and 7 st/inch in seed stitch. A difference in gauge is not critical but will just create a slightly larger, or smaller, sachet
