Leaf Sachet Pattern #4008A

MATERIALS for both Leaf Sachet and Square Sachet: CLARK'S O.N.T. "BRILLIANT," 1 ball for each sachet. Steel crochet hook No. 10. ½ yard ribbon, ¼ inch wide. A piece of satin 3 x 6 inches

LEAF (Make 2)... Starting at center, ch 35.

1st row: Sc in 2nd ch from hook and in each ch across, ch 3, sc in same place as last sc; now working along opposite side of foundation ch, make sc in each ch across to last 4 sc, do not work in last 4 sts (this end is tip of leaf). Ch 5, turn.

Hereafter work only in the back loop of each sc. 2nd row: Sc in each sc across to the ch-3, in ch-3 loop make sc, ch 3 and sc (this end is base of leaf); sc in each sc across to last 4 sc. Ch 5, turn.

Repeat the 2nd row 8 more times.

Now work sc in each sc across to ch-3 loop at base of leaf, sl st in loop. Fasten off. Make another piece same as this.

Place leaves together matching corresponding parts and sew along edges, leaving ch-5 loops free and stuffing with cotton and sachet before opening becomes too small.

Now work over corresponding loops of both leaves as follows: Attach thread to 1st 2 loops (one of each leaf), thus joining loops together, ch 3, dc in same place, ch 5, holding back on hook the last loop of each dc, make 2 dc in same place, thread over and draw through all loops on hook (cluster made), and continue making cluster, ch 5 and cluster in each set of corresponding loops along edge at tip of leaf. Fasten off.

Cut ribbon in half and run one piece through cluster edging at tip and tack ends to back. If desired ribbon rosebuds may be added. Form a loop with remainder of ribbon and fasten to base of leaf.
