Notes

Yarn held doubled for a soft, cushy sleeve — which will be fulled — to protect the ‘puter from scratches in the bag.

Just guessing the number of stitches and whatnot. Hoping that I can get to the right size when fulling.

Garter-stitch strip worked for half a dozen, or so, rows. Stitches picked up and knitted around for 13” (ish)—117 in total. Cast off side and front stitches. Flap worked back and forth on 57 stitches, decreasing to 47. Cast off knitwise on WS row.

Pre-fulled measurements: 13½“ (34.5 cm) high, 18½” (47 cm) wide.

Twice through the front-loading washer got just the right size. The flap’s a bit wonky-looking, and I might have to take the scissors to it to neaten it up. Still, hubby likes it, and that’s what matters.
