Lia Mobile Phone Bag is a quick and practical crochet project, perfect for keeping your phone close at hand. The cross-body bag is worked in one long rectangle, starting at the flap edge, then folded and seamed to create the bag. This simple construction makes it easy to adjust the length to suit your phone or preferred bag size.
The flap offers a choice of two fastenings: crocheted ties for a pretty bow, or a button and loop fastening. Loops at the sides hold a detachable crocheted Romanian cord strap, finished with swivel lobster clasps.
The pattern uses a simple two-stitch repeat, so the width can easily be adjusted too. Worked in DK/light worsted-weight yarn, it’s a great little project for using a favourite skein of yarn and makes a useful everyday accessory. The pattern is written in English and uses UK terms.
