Now that the gifting season is soon approaching, I wanted to design something that appeals to the younger crowd. I designed these cases to suit my android devices but they can easily be customized for an iPhone or iPad. I chose Lily Sugar n Cream as it is 100% cotton and gives great stitch definition. The stitch used in this crochet pattern is a simple variation of the single crochet which surprisingly looks like a simple star stitch. You can use the free pattern to make matching cases for your phones and tablets. I hope you will enjoy working on this pattern.

"This bag pattern is a perfect project for a confident beginner. It is worked from the bottom (base) up and uses basic crochet stitches. The base and top part of this bag are worked in the round (in a spiral). The main body part, on the other hand, though it is still worked in the round after crocheting the last stitch of the round, you have to slip stitch it into the very first stitch of that same round to join and then you will need to chain 1 to get the height of the next stitch. I've also included an option to add a detachable shoulder strap which you have the choice of crocheting your own strap or using a leather one."
