What to do:
1. Start by folding up the bottom of one end about 15cm (you can adjust this measurement depending on how deep or shallow you want your pockets) and pinning it in place on both sides.

2. Measure out the size of each individual pocket and mark them with pins. The easiest way to do this is to lay out all the things that you know you always bring with you and measure the pockets accordingly.

3. Once you've marked all the pocket lines, remove the items from the pockets and sew along both sides of the towel and all the pin marks.

What you need:
- large beach towel
- cotton to match the colour of you beach towel
- needles
- pins
- ruler or measuring tape
- scissors

Estimated time needed: 15 minutes
