Crocheted Ipad Cozy

Crocheted Ipad cozy with flowers

The cozy is filet crocheted in white with some effect ”blobs” in bright colors. And a Apple inc. ”apple” in yellow on the back where the apple is placed on the Ipad. I added some crocheted flowers and leafs as well.

Wanted to use spring-colors so the scrap looked like candy! love it!

I used the iPad as a template and traced it on the translucent paper. Then I pinned the front and back panels so that they got exactly the template form. Sprayed with a little water and let it dry.

pin to the right shape

The apple did not ”want” to get the right shape so I had to mix sugar and water into starch and drip on. First, I pinned it so that the apple got the right shape. When sugar-water dries it becomes very hard and keep the shape for long.

The next step was to crochet double crochet(dc) around the edge. And leave holes where all the buttons and sockets are.
Then I sewed the two pieces together.

Voilá!

    You did a great job. I like the idea of crocheting right on the item to get a custom fit.

    @Maria and Irene Sin and Lorna – thanks you guys for your lovely words :)

    @Sarah – I crocheted the two pieces together with a row of double crochet and the height of it is the same height as the side of the Ipad. If you look closely at the image were my daughter is reading on the iPad you can see that edge row. Hope this was of any help :)

    @David – Tack! Det var kul att ses och teckna! mera sånt! :)
