I wanted a very simple slip cover for my Kobo, so that when I tossed it in my bag it would have a nice little buffer around it.
This pattern calls for a DK weight yarn. The yarn that you choose should have some stretch to it so that the yarn will hug the Kobo nicely. I used Mirasol Yarns Hacho, which is perfect for this project!

Please note that this pattern is for the original Kobo, not the newer, slightly smaller one. It can, however, be easily modified to fit the new Kobo by decreasing a few stitches on the cast-on and knitting to the desired length.
