While this pouch was made by the designer to fit the HTC Desire (and I phone) of dimensions 2 1/2” x 4.9” x 0.4”, it has been tested for and fits several other phone models as well.

This phone pouch has been specially designed for you for when you go out jogging, want your own special music and yet need to stay in touch with your mobile phone. The phone is laced-up to your arm, stays secure and looks good too :)

This pattern has been tested using :
a) 4 ply fingering yarn, Oswal Mills, about 25 ngms / 90 yds, 4 mm crochet hook ;

b) Discontinued #3 acrylic yarn, about 1/2 oz = 57 yds ; 4 mm (G) crochet hook ;
Comments : Instructions / Illustrations and photos are good; all techniques are well explained ; I took about 4-5 hrs to complete my pouch. Will re-make this pattern
Skill level by tester : Easy / beginner

c) 10 ply kitchen cotton yarn - reduced the number of stitches and used sc instead of dc for strap. worked well. nice pattern

d) Purse thread, about 40 gm, 4 mm crochet hook ;
Comments : Instructions, illustrations and photos are very good ; All techniques well explained ; took only a few hours to complete my project ;
