This is a crochet book cover kit. Designed as a sleeve-style cover that slips onto the book flaps, the design features the word “Read” expressed with a colorwork pattern as its central motif. Each time you open the book, the design gently encourages you to read.

The yarn, Dohwaji, is tightly spun, giving the cover a firm shape while still feeling soft to the touch, making it comfortable to work with. Compared to typical cotton yarns for crochet, it is relatively lightweight, making it well suited for practical accessories.

With this kit, enjoy both your love of books and the pleasure of making something by hand. A detailed video tutorial covering the entire process is included.
