There is nothing worse than getting a shiny new laptop, only to put it in your travel bag and find it all dinged up a week later. These quick and easy electronic sleeves will protect your belongings from scratches, whether it's a computer, phone, tablet, or handheld gaming device.
Be sure to keep your gadget handy for measuring.
It's best to use super acrylic yarn because it will hold up most to wear and tear. I use Caron One Pound skeins.
Crochet hook to meet your gauge. Size H with Caron One Pound.
Instructions:
Before you begin, decide on which side of the device you would like to have the sleeve opening. I prefer having the opening on the shorter side of the electronic so there's a lesser risk of it slipping out.
Row 1: Chain a length until it is the same length as the side of your gadget. When measuring, it's best to stretch out the row of chains because the chains will get longer as you work SC's in them.
Be sure the chain is laying flat. You will be working on both sides of the chain to make it circular.
Row 2: Working on one side of the chains, 2 SC in second chain from hook, 1 SC in each ch across until you reach the last ch, 2 SC in last ch.
Turn to work in the bottom loops of the foundation chains, 2 SC in first ch, 1 SC in each ch across until you reach the last ch, 2 sc in last ch, sl st in first SC.
Row 3: Ch 1, 1 SC in each SC across, sl st in first SC.
Repeat Row 3 in the circle until you reach the desired length.
