Description
This Lavender Flower Crochet Phone Case Pattern PDF makes a quiet project for a Sunday morning, a rainy evening on the couch, or any hour when you want your hands occupied without asking them to hurry.
Ingredients
- Worsted weight yarn, weight 4 medium, about 170 yards per 100 g skein; one 100 g skein total
- Small amount of worsted weight yarn in a lavender shade, about 12 yards
- H-8 (5.0 mm) crochet hook
- Yarn needle for weaving in the ends
- Scissors
- One stitch marker, optional
- Tape measure
Instructions
- Measure your phone first to ensure the case fits well. The case works best when it measures about 1 inch taller than the phone and about 1/4 inch wider on each side.
- Make a foundation chain of 16 chains.
- Row 1: Make 1 double crochet (dc) in the third chain from the hook and in each chain across. You will have 14 double crochet stitches.
- Row 2: Chain 2 for the turning chain. Turn your work and make 1 double crochet in each stitch across. You will have 14 double crochet stitches.
- Repeat Row 2 until the rectangle measures 7 inches (18 cm) from the foundation edge.
- Check the fit by wrapping the rectangle around your phone, ensuring it covers the front and back.
- Fold the rectangle so the foundation edge and final row meet at the bottom. Match the side edges carefully.
- Join the first side with slip stitches, inserting the hook through both layers, yarn over, and pull through all loops on the hook.
- Join the second side in the same way, keeping the phone case turned inside out while you join.
- Make the flower by forming a magic ring and working 10 double crochet stitches into the ring, then join with a slip stitch.
- Shape the petals by chaining 2, then working 3 double crochet stitches in the next stitch, repeat around the flower.
- Sew the flower onto the case near the upper front corner using the yarn needle, keeping the stitches secure but not tight.
- Cut the yarn, leaving a 6-inch tail, and weave in the ends with the yarn needle.
- Gently shape the finished case with your hands.
Notes
Keep the flower firmly attached as small parts and long loose stitches can be unsafe for children under three.
