Nice, quite big chalk bucket to hold the chalk when bouldering. Roll top with velcro and clips. Little front pocket with zip.

Fabrics

I used fabrics I had at home, even though some were in hindsight not ideal. Main fabric: Patterned canvas from Skroten, Kinna. Yellow furniture fabric from 2nd hand shop, bit velvety and completely non-stretch. Lining fabric: Recommended was fleece, but I only had a heat-proof wadding from my Oven gloves project, so I used that. It was a bit stretchy, but non-elastic, i.e. stretched out a bit during the sewing process. It was also a bit too bulky.

For the lining of the front pocket I used leftovers of a simple, thin cotton fabric.

Next time I would definitely use a thinner main lining fabric. Fleece is recommended because the fine hairs keep the chalk dust more contained, but I would go with the thinnest fleece possible. Otherwise you can’t get 2 full rolls on the roll-top closure.

The pattern is in inches, and the zip was supposed to be something like 22 cm, and the only available zips I could find were between sizes (either 20 cm or 25 cm). So used the longer one and tucket it a bit in, and sewed over it (carefully) to make an earlier stop. It worked perfectly and it looks good from inside and outside.
