Free Crochet Kindle Sleeve Pattern

[@breey6093]

I just made this! I have the smallest Kindel, 6", and I followed this pattern exactly but used a size 5mm (H) hook with 5 yarn. Came out perfect. I just has to add another round of SC at the very end. Instead of the flower, I worked up a Star Trek insignia and attached it. Thanks for the great video!

[@cshauna9110]

I made one for myself and one for my best friend. This tutorial was so easy and quick!

[@nicoles6080]

Just completed the pattern along with the flower charm! This was really fun to do and it looks beautiful! I am really happy with it and can't wait to do it again in more colors. Thank you for posting and showing how to do this amazing pattern!!

Darling little design! Just made one and love it! Thank you for sharing your craft!

[@cheekypanda0004]

First, love the pattern and design❤❤❤ Second I love that you sell these but still offer a KZbin tutorial on exactly how to make them as well. Love it. Sharing your craft and still taking care of business as well. Love love love it!

@@cheekypanda0004 thank you, that makes me so happy to hear. I am so glad you like the pattern and the design 😊!

[@yunarose84]

Haven't crochet in years but I will definitely be trying this soon!!!

[@Savlabot]

@@yunarose84 I hope you like as a first pattern after a break from crochet 🥰

[@carriemarino5806]

Thank you so much for this pattern. I made it today and the written instructions on your blog were a huge help.

[@Savlabot]

Thank you, I am so glad you found the blog post and it was helpful 😊.

[@thesimplyspoiled1]

Tried it. Love it! 🥰. I don’t know who’s it did it but I lost the container with all my crochet hooks in it. But I had an H hook. I just tried to crochet very loosely. It’s perfect. This was my first time using Bernat Maker yearn. I really like it. ❤

[@Savlabot]

@@thesimplyspoiled1 I am glad you liked the pattern and that it worked with an H hook. I hope you find the rest of your hooks.

[@alfathemarine]

Just finished my kindle sleeve. Its an adorable pattern. Thank you for this tutorial!❤

[@leahhughes2257]

Brilliant video! I just wish you’d shown where you’re slip stitching on each round, are you slip stitching into the previous slip stitch, the chain 1 (on rounds 2&3) or the first worked stitch? If I slip stitch into the first worked stitch, there’s a small gap in joining each round. Thank you so much!

[@Savlabot]

I am glad you liked the video. I normally do my slip stitch into the top of the chain 1 on those rounds.

[@leahhughes2257]

Thank you soooo so much!! ❤

[@ZntLovesJesus777]

I missed the step 😭

[@cierramedina6460]

Does the pattern include if we wanted to customize this for a different sized holder. I love the stitch but want to make it for my Nintendo switch so it would need different measurements.

[@Savlabot]

@@cierramedina6460 on my blog I have some suggestions on how to modify for different sizes. It can be made bigger or smaller pretty easily.

[@dianner9218]

I wasn't even looking for a crochet kindle sleeve & came across this one. Immediately fell in love with it, but I don't even know how crochet 😢 My fingers are itching to learn to crochet 😆 im hoping i can pull this off one day ❤

[@Savlabot]

@@dianner9218 crochet is a lot of fun! I hope you get a chance to learn and make on of these 😊, and thank you, I am glad this kindle sleeve has you thinking about crochet 🤗!

[@zoeylanham3317]

Did you use only one skein for this project?

[@Savlabot]

Yes, you can get more than 1 Kindle sleeve with one skein.

[@smritighildiyal4908]

hi sorry im super confused, do round 2 and 3 both have 36 sc each? or it is 19 across for 2 and 19 across the other side for 3? thank you!

[@Savlabot]

I have the pattern on my blog, it is linked in the description. Have you looked at it written out? That may help with any confusion.

[@chelsieharrison7219]

I wish you had a pattern of this for flat panels. I hate working in the round so want to go the panel route and sew together for the sleeve. I think I can figure it out but what I would chain at the end of the rows is what’s throwing me off. Ugh!

[@Savlabot]

@@chelsieharrison7219 I am not a fan of sewing pieces together so that is why it is worked in the round. This is how I chose to make this cover for my Kindle and I thought I would share how I did it. I don’t have a good suggestion for the best way to sew panels together as it is not something I do. I do have a washcloth pattern that uses this stitch and I work the sides up differently, that pattern could possibly be used as the start and the end of each row is different and it might make for an easy way to sew two pieces together. You can find that pattern here savlabot.com/?p=2301

[@msm9955]

If I want to make the sleeve bigger how many stitches do I need to add to keep the pattern? 2? I'm still new to crocheting, this will be my 3rd project. I did the chains and first hdc but its not wide enough for my ereader so I need to add more chains. 🙏

[@msm9955]

I just want to add thank you for this pattern I've been looking for an eReader pattern since I started crocheting about 3 months ago and I've finally found this one last night I love the design ❤

[@Savlabot]

@@msm9955 Thank you 🙂I am so glad you like this version of a crochet e-reader pattern.

[@Savlabot]

I have a link in the video description with the written pattern. At the end of the pattern I have a section with modifications that tells you how to modify for a bigger size.

[@hollybrookes3399]

Just finished this pattern and it looks amazing! When I’ve chained 3 and then started into my first bobble stitch I find the gap looks really big and I have had to sew parts closer together just wondering what may cause this?

[@Savlabot]

I am not sure, when you do the last bobble, are you included that chain 3 as part of that bobble?

[@hollybrookes3399]

@ yes I’ve been including it, I might make another and see if there’s anything I can change to stop them being as big

[@hollybrookes3399]

@@Savlabot I have tried with a chain 2 instead of 3 and this has helped a lot :)

[@Diamondsandpassion]

I'm lost at round 4 or 5. I think I'm same page but my tail of yarn that was at beginning is on the wrong side as yours. This is the first time I've done anything besides blankets. I'm not sure how you're doing the edge and starting other side

[@Savlabot]

It may be that you turned your work instead of continuing onto the backside of the foundation chain. In order to make this in the round you need to work the first row onto both the front and back loop of the foundation chain. With a blanket after the first round you turn the work, you don't want to do that in this pattern. This pattern is worked in the round so you should always end each round back at the beginning where your tail yarn is. Hopefully this helps.

[@Diamondsandpassion]

@@Savlabot thanks so much. That helps a lot

[@rosevillalobos]

Thank you so much for this beautiful pattern! The sleeve measures 5x8 inches but doesn't the paperwhite Kindle measure 5x7? Your Kindle seems to fit perfectly but it seems the sleeve would be an inch too long?

[@Savlabot]

Thank you, I am glad you like the sleeve. It is a snug fit, and the measurement is about 1" longer than the paperwhite, I think because of the thickness of the kindle it makes it shorter once the device is in it...I am not sure the best way to describe this. I think because of the thickness of the yarn and how it is crocheted flat, when it opens (or expands) to hold the device it makes it shorter...I hope that makes some sense.

[@rosevillalobos]

​@@SavlabotMakes perfect sense. Thank you for responding! ❤

[@AFitcraftylife]

Which direction are you turning your work after each round? I got to the first round of sc + ch 1 and to the end of Rnd 4. Then Rnd 5 started the bobble stitch but I didn't have any ch 1 spaces on the other side of the round, if that makes sense.

[@Savlabot]

This is crocheted in the round, so you won't turn your work. You work all stitches in the same direction. After you join in the round using the slip stitch you keep going onto the next stitch. I hope that helps.

[@AFitcraftylife]

@@Savlabot thanks! That helps a lot! I appreciate your response and video tutorial!

[@Diamondsandpassion]

Oh! That's makes more sense. I didnt know what in the round was lol

[@Cassandra-c9i]

Hi there. Approximately how many yards are needed for this sleeve? 😊

[@qazedc3]

Is any jersey yarn basically the same size as this one? I had used it for another tutorial where they used acrylic and mine turned out a bit larger and bulkier.

[@Savlabot]

Not all jersey yarns are the same. They can vary quite a bit.

[@qazedc3]

@@Savlabot I think the one I got is like size 5-6, it’s quite bulky

[@Savlabot]

@@qazedc3 Bernat Maker is a pretty light weight one. Woobles yarn is very similar in weight.

@@maureencunningham2317 thank you 😊

[@Bellachris75]

I've never had such trouble following a tutorial 😢 You say SC until you get you the beginning, what does "the beginning" meaaaan? Do I SC on the chain 1 I did when I started the row or not? Where does it end? I'm so confused, please help

[@Savlabot]

@@Bellachris75 I am so sorry you are having trouble. The pattern is worked in the round, but not continuously, so when you get to the end of the round you are back at the beginning of the round. You do not continue to sc, you join the round together with a slst. Then you are ready to start the next round. There is a free written pattern on my blog that goes along with this, maybe seeing it written out would help. There is a link to the pattern in the video description.

[@Bellachris75]

@@Savlabot OKAAY I was missing the slst, I know you said it for the first one but it didnt click to me that it would be every time. Thank you so much for answering 💕

You don’t say which hook or type of yarn to use

[@Myx_Doll]

The hook size is a 6mm I recognize the hook I have the same one, and so the yarn must be a regular size yarn ( 4 medium ) that's what I'm currently using making this pattern.
