Striped Crochet Diaper and Wipes Travel Holder

My sister is having a little baby girl! Yay! So I decided to make her something that I've made for a couple of my friends who were having babies. I think this cute little diaper and wipes holder is perfect. It's big enough to hold a couple diapers and a small travel size wipes. But it's small enough to fit in a purse or small bag. Plus, I did my best to pick out some cute colors. I wrote down the pattern as I made it so here it is!

Striped Diaper and Wipes Holder

Materials:
5.5mm hook
Worsted weight yarn in 2 colors (I chose a light grey-color A and white-color B)
Button
Yarn needle

Pattern:
Using Color A, ch 34
Row 1: hdc in 3rd ch from hook, hdc across, turn (32)
Row 2: ch 2, hdc across, turn (32)
Row 3: ch 3, dc across, change to color B, turn (32)
Row 4: ch 2, hdc across, turn (32)
Row 5: ch 2, hdc across, turn (32)
Row 6: ch 3, dc across, change to color A, turn (32)
Rows 7-48: Repeat rows 1-6 (hdc across twice, then dc across, changing colors after each set of 3)
Row 49: ch 2, hdc across, turn (32)
Row 50: ch 2, hdc across (32)

Fold each end so that you have an overlap of 10 rows
Using color A, sc along each side, creating two pockets. Fasten off.

Attach color A to the bottom edge of one pocket, 12 sts from the corner.
Row 1: ch 3 to start the strap, dc in next 8 sts, turn (8)
Row 2: ch 3, dc x 8, turn (8)
Row 3: ch 3, dc x 8, turn (8)
Row 4: ch 2, sc x 8, turn (8)
Row 5: ch 2, sc x 2, ch 3, sk 3, sc x 3, turn (8)
Row 6: ch 2, sc x 8, turn (8)
Row 7: ch 2, hdc x 8, fasten off (8)

Sew button on the 4th rows of sts on the back of the other pocket (opposite to where you just created the strap)

Attach Color B and sc around the entire case, including the strap

Flower Applique

Use a color that will give your flower a nice pop against the stripes of your holder.

ch 4, ss in 1st chain to make a circle
1. sc in circle, ch 5, repeat around so you have 6 loops
on the last ch completion, join to 1st sc

2. work next sequence in ch spaces
sc, ch 1, 6dc, ch 1, tc, ch 1, 6dc, ch 1, sc
repeat in each ch space
join to 1st sc in 1st petal

Fasten off leaving a tail about 12 inches long.

With your needle, loop the tail in the first DC and last DC of each petal. This will make the flower into the 3D shape. Thread the yarn to the back of the flower so that you can sew it onto the holder. Sew to holder. I did mine on the front, bottom left.
