Finished Size: 13 x 19 x 4 cm (5.1 × 7.5 × 1.6 inches )with the book inside. Fits a small book up to 18.3 x 12 x 2 cm (7.2 × 4.7 × 0.8 inches)

To Customize Size: To add or remove fans across the rectangle, change the starting chain by 10 for each fan. Six fans use ch63, five fans use ch53. The stitch count of every row stays one more than a multiple of 10. To change the flap width, add or remove 6 stitches for each fan. Seven fans use 44 stitches and a starting chain of 45. For each fan added, work 3 more repeats of (ch1, skip 1, dc) in the open square rows. Keep an even number of double rows in the rectangle, so the last fan row is a Half Fan Row, which is what the top edge is written for.
