That’s dope, you’re dope, he’s dope, yo she is doooooope!
The word “dope” can mean different things to different people, but in this case it is used to describe something or someone great, excellent,or impressive!
I can’t count how many times I use this word in a day. I pretty much use it to describe anything that I approve of, so why not crochet the word on a few things?
There really isn’t a spectacular story about how this project came to mind, I just use the word…like…alot. :LOL
If you’re a beginner, no worries, you too can make this pouch! Just stick with it and you’ll have a new pouch in no time! Promise.
Okay, let’s dive into it…
