Free Knitting Pattern iPhone Case in Linen Stitch

I’ve just completed this cute little bag for my iPhone. The yarn that I used is DROPS Alaska in Christmas red shade. The recommended needle for this yarn is 5.5mm. So, the pattern will be based on this. Obviously you can use any yarn that you have and adjust the needle and number of stitches accordingly.

Yarn: DROPS Alaska (less than 1 ball)

Needle: Double pointed needle 5.5mm

Use 5.5mm double pointed needle, cast on 33 stitches. Work in rounds.

First Round: Knit

Second Round: *K1, bring yarn forward, slip next stitch as if to purl, bring yarn backwards*, repeat from * to *, end with K1.

Third Round: *Bring yarn forward, slip next stitch as if to purl, bring yarn backwards, K1**, repeat from * to *, end with bringing yarn forward, slipping next stitch as if to purl, and bringing yarn backwards.

Second and third round formed linen stitch pattern. Continue in these 2 rows until desired length. (13cm for my iPhone).

Cast off. Leave a long yarn attached to the cast off side for the hook.

Use crochet needle 5.0mm make chain stitches and join the end to the beginning. Forming a loop.

Join the cast on side together.

Sew button at the front side of the case. Ensuring you can fasten the loop over the button.

I love using double buttons to cute things up.
