Crochet iPhone Case - Lately I’ve been feeling a burning desire to start crocheting again (I think it was around Christmas the last time I picked up a hook). At this time of year it’s not like we need scarves, cowls or beanies so I wasn’t sure what I should make but then I saw some really cute iPhone cases on Pinterest and thought that would be a great project to get me back in the crocheting game again. I looked at a few patterns and in the end just sort of came up with my own design. It’s ridiculously easy and quick – it took me about an hour and I’m a pretty slow crocheter. Even beginners can handle this fun project.

Materials:
◦Thick yarn (I used Bernat Roving) in 1 or 2 colours
◦Crochet hook 1 size smaller than recommended on yarn packaging (I used 5.5mm or US 9)
◦Button of your choice
◦Thread
◦Darning needle
◦Sewing needle
◦Scissors
◦Your phone (to make sure the fit is what you want)

This case will have a more structured feel and appearance if you keep the tension on this firm and tight and consistent throughout the project.
You could use this pattern for any phone or tablet, just increase the amount of stitches at the beginning to accommodate for the extra width. These would make great gifts too.
