Mystical Mushroom Dice Bag
Free Crochet Pattern!
I love a challenge – do you? I wanted to design a 🍄 Mushroom Crochet Dice Bag Pattern that was both cute and functional – great at holding dice, really looks like a mushroom, and able to hold it’s cap up all on it’s own! With the help of my fabulous pattern testers (y’all rock!) and multiple tweaks of this design – I think we nailed it! What do y’all think? I you excited to make a Mushie to store your dice collection in your fave color combo? 🎲 These Mushroom Dice Holders also make an amazing gift for your fave Dnd Player! I hope y’all love this new pattern as much as I do! 🍄

Crochet Dice Bag Pattern
How many dice is too many? Asking for a friend! 😝 But in all seriousness, what’s great about this bag is that it can hold as many as 50 dice in the stem alone, I designed it to be able to stand strong with just a few dice too! This functional drawstring bag mushroom pattern can be used to hold anything you like too, you’re certainly not limited to dice!
This free dice bag crochet pattern works up quickly! I finished both of my samples in just a few hours, even sewing on the spots! The mushroom drawstring bags are simple to make because you’re just making simple increases and decreases, working in the round. The only sewing is the spots!
This project is perfect for Netflix and chill nights, with lots of repetition, so whether you watch your fave movie on Netflix or Prime Video, or pick a new, bingeable audiobook, while working on your Mushroom Crochet Dice Bag Pattern! I am currently listening to King of Scars on Audible after falling in love with the Grishaverse (Shadow and Bone Trilogy and Crooked Kingdom Duology) by the same author – Leigh Bardugo. I highly recommend all of them! 💜
