Assembly

• Step1: With odd numbered rows facing out, fold at Row 59. Rows 59 � 79 will form the front of the pocket.
• Step 2: Use stitch markers to hold pocket in place.
  
  With Color B, join to the side of Row 59 with a sl st, ch 1, and sc through front *and* back layers of pocket, enclosing any yarn carried along the side.
  
  Continue to sc along side of Color B section, switching to Color A to crochet along the side of the Color A rows.
  
  At the corner, ch 2, and sc across the foundation chain. Then, ch 2 again, and sc along the other side, switching to Color B for that section.
  
  Sc through front and back layers of opposite side of pocket, finishing this row at the opposite end of Row 59.
  
  
• Step 3: Use stitch markers to plan your pocket divisions. This is a custom feature � place the lines where you want them so that the pockets are the right size for the items you want to keep in the caddy. Once marked, use surface crochet (tutorial linked above) to crochet along the line, from Row 59 to Row 79, going through both layers of the pocket, switching colors to match the stripes as desired.
