HOOK
I used a 5.5 mm hook to make the phone sleeve pictured but you can use any hook size you like.
YARN
You can use any yarn you like to make your phone sleeve. For the phone sleeve pictured I used Weight 4 yarn.
NOTES
- Beginning chain may or may not count as a stitch
- When creating the chain stitches through the pattern make sure not to pull them too tightly, tight chain stitches may make the cozy less stretchy especially if worsted weight yarn is being used.

OPTIONAL STRAP
I didn’t add a strap to my sleeve but if you’d like to carry it like a purse a strap would be a great idea.
Join Colour 1 on one side, ch any number of stitches until your strap reaches your desired length, join with a slst to the other side of your sleeve, turn and slst back across the ch until you reach the side you started, fasten off.
Weave in your ends and enjoy!
