Portable Hole

This Portable Hole isn’t exactly big enough to swallow you up when you’re embarrassed, allow you to escape when you’re on the lam, or grant you access to another dimension, but it’s a pretty handy place to stash your passport, your keys, or a few dog treats while you’re out in the world.

And it feels marvellous.

This lightweight cowl features a nearly invisible pocket - a place to tuck your valuables that securely buttons closed - while decoy pockets provide decoration and distraction.

Worked mainly in the round, with short sections worked flat to leave openings that are later finished into pockets, Portable Hole requires you to have the following skills:  -crochet provisional cast-on  -knitting in the round  -knitting flat  -picking up stitches  -kitchener stitch/grafting

Shown in Shibui Pebble with Shibui Cima for contrast. Choose a yarn that is heavy lace to light fingering with a good body for the main part - a dark main colour helps conceal your pocket contents.
