Try your hand at tapestry crochet with Vicki Brown’s fabulous
pattern. Pick a handful of vibrant shades and you’ll have a custom cosy for your device before you know it.

Each row is worked with a combination of colours. The non-working yarn is held on top of the previous row and worked over with the working yarn until required. Both yarns are carried in this way to the end of a row.

For a custom size, take the width and height measurements of your device, add 1cm to the width and multiply these numbers by 2; this is how many stitches and rows you will require. Ideally your starting ch will be a multiple of 4 plus 1, but if you have extra sts, evenly place them either end of the row and use the chart to work out which colour these should be.
