Before eBooks and Audiobooks there were Paperback books ;) I’m sure they still exist and for those of you who love your paperback books and still borrow them from the library, or purchase them in bookstores this pattern is for you!

My Nana always had a fabric book cover on her paperback books and I have planned on making a crochet version for myself for quite some time.

This is a very easy pattern - you can choose to try to apply a yarn pooling technique, or use a solid color yarn instead. I have included multiple photos and visuals to assist you with the project and video tutorial links for the best planned pooling videos I’ve seen so far.

This will make a great gift for anyone who likes to take their book with them to appointments - it allows them to read what they want without anyone else around them knowing if it is the latest trashy romance novel - or vampire series!

Enjoy!
