Notes
This sleeve was designed to fit a standard Kindle or Kindle Paperwhite. However you can easily increase the length by adding more repeats of the 6 row pattern. You can increase width by adding a few extra knit stitches to the sides of the cable section or by playing with yarn weight/needle size.

Skill Level
Advanced Beginner - you’ll need to be comfortable with the basic techniques of casting on, binding off, knitting, purling, knitting in the round, & creating chains with a crochet hook. This pattern does use a few cable techniques but they are fairly simple so this could be a great first cabling project.
