This pattern tells you how to crochet a simple but effective cover for your recorder. It’s worked back and forth in stripes, then simply seamed, and ties added.

The directions are for a descant recorder size, using DK weight yarn and a 4mm hook, though notes are included on how to adapt the pattern for different sizes and for different yarns.

You’ll need around 115 yds (105m) of DK weight yarn. I used Biggan Design Merino First Cross 8 ply, and used the equivalent of one skein.

It’s written in UK terms although a US equivalent chart is given.
