I don’t know about you, but I love to travel. I pack light (typically use a carry-on only, no matter where I’m going) and I’ve tried various things to keep my necklaces from tangling in my suitcase. Instead of separating necklaces out throughout my luggage so they’re not touching or spending a bunch of time untangling them when we arrive at our destination, I created a free crochet pattern for a jewelry saver for luggage. Grab your hook and let’s make one!
Jewelry Saver Crochet Pattern
Don’t you hate when you pack jewelry in your suitcase, and the chains and necklaces get all tangled? Nothing worse than getting dressed for the first night out in your destination and having to stop to unpick your accessories before you can hit the town. Find any ol’ knob or hook in the hotel room from which to hang your saver using the chain we use as a tie closure. Brilliant!
These jewelry savers are completely customizable, meaning that you can make a small, medium, or large, and add as many pockets as you need for the number of accessories you’re taking.
We want to use a worsted weight cotton for this project and I am using Craft Cotton from Herrschners. This is a beautiful cotton that works up nicely for all kinds of things. Including jewelry savers.
There are multiple sizes of this pattern and you can create as many pockets/pouches as you like. If you have big earrings, make the larger size. If you have a lot of smaller necklaces, make the smaller size and add as many pockets as needed.
Other cottons that would work well for this project would be Dishie from WeCrochet, Herrschners Cottage Cotton, Premier Cotton Sprout, Lion Brand 24/7 Cotton, or any other worsted weight cotton or cotton blend.
