Krabo is a handknit book cover designed to keep your books safe from damage.
It is the ultimate accessory for readers and a perfect gift to quickly make for your book-lover friends.

The pattern is offered in two sizes, designed to fit books that measure approximately 13,5 x 21 x 3cm and (15,5 x 23 x 3 cm). Keep in mind that the fabric has some stretch, so you will be able to use this cover with books of slightly different sizes. In any case, the pattern is very easy to adapt and instructions for adaptation are provided at the end of the recipe.

Krabo is named after the word “crab” in Esperanto, since the twisted slipped stitches in this lovely yarn reminded me of the little crab pincers I usually find on my beach walks.
