Well this is my first attempt at writting a pattern (and its a very loose one at that)
**In addition you will need a button for the closure
Using double pointed needles ( i generally use sz 4 or 5 to get tight stitches) Cast on even number of stitches(i generally used 9-18-9). Work in Stockinet stitch until it is the length of the needles you plan on putting in the pouch(yes you are just making a tube)- bind off half the stitches
Continue to work the remaining stitches in stockinet for 2-4 rows
Row1- K1 K2tog. k to last 3 k2tog k1
Row2- K1 P to last st. K1
Repeat. (depending on the number of stitches you use you may not be able to continue exactly this way just continue to decrease until you have 2 or 3 stitches remaining)
K the last 2 or 3 stitches together and crochet a tail- attach to make a loop. -OR- make i-cord with the last 2 or 3 stitches.
Sew bottom closed and sew botton on front.
I made them for my Double pointed needles for both storage and travel so i used fabric paint to put numbers on them. You could embroider them or make them as complex or simple as you'd like
