    Does anyone have a pattern so I can make a wrist wallet for someone with a cane. Right now she carries a Royal Crown Bag. I'm sure you all know what that is. I just need a simple pattern to follow she doesn't carry a lot. It needs to fit like her keys, wallet .. She puts the string around her wrist then holds it with her hand in the middle. Any ideas will be extremely helpful.

    My husband was handicapped and I would not recommend a wrist wallet at all. This will be an area that she will watch now and then, when her full attention should be on her cane or walker. Better still would be a vest with inside pockets, or a fanny pack she can wear in front, with a stiffened top so it will remain open when she unzips/unbuttons/opens the top, but with velcro so it stays closed when she wants it to. Or maybe one she can wear around her neck like a necklace, long enough so she can see it when it is opened, but with that easy to close velcro.

    I said the same thing but she is focused on having it on her wrist. She won't change her mind.

    I have a list of ones I have found online...

    There's bound to be one that you think she will like,
    Most of them are just a zippered pouch with a strap on them ;)
    There is also a knot bag version too.
