This FREE pattern is for a ribbed phone bag which can be carried in hand, hung around your wrist, or looped onto a bag. Eyelets are incorporated into the ribbing to create a mesh, sporty look.

It is knit flat and lengthwise (sideways) instead of widthwise, which is what makes the purls “pop” out while the knits “sink” in for the ribbing.

It stretches to accommodate any cell phone width-wise, and can easily be customized for taller phones by adjusting the # of stitches cast on, which is explained in detail with examples in the pattern PDF.
