  Step 1

  cut the plastic using the pattern and fold in half (place some double sided tape in the middle)

• 

  Step 2

  use a marker to sign a dots 3/8" apart - use the hole punch onto the dots (you might have to use some alcohol to remove the leftover marker stains)

• 

  Step 3

  crochet a single crochet in each hole around, working two single crochet every 5 stitches on the curved sides, so it won't be tight.

• 

  Step 4

  Once it's all crocheted, fold the plastic in half, and start sewing the straight parts together, starting from the rounded edge going down.

• 

  Step 5

  Once you reached about 2" from the middle part, fold it in 1/3 to create the wider base

  Step 6

  and sew it in place; repeat on the other side.

  Step 7

  Time to crochet the scalloped edge:
  7 dc into the same stitch - sk 1 st - 1 sc - sk 1 st - 7 dc into the same stitch

• 

  Step 8

  pin the zipper in place and sew it. ... Done!
