About the Design:
Whether you call it an iCozy, iSleeve, iSock, or iCover, this pattern is the 4th in a series of knit covers for your cell phone or eyeglasses. Cell phones are ubiquitous, so, with a small investment of time, you can knit yourself, family, and your friends a colorful i-cover!

The covers only weigh about an ounce, so they make good use of all those tiny balls of stash yarns we can’t bear to get rid of, or the discontinued yarns or colors we can’t get more of! ! This Fair Isle pattern evolved over time with many incarnations, but patience won out, as this final design pleases me.

Knit it in either bright and cheery colors, or more subdued colors, like the sand, blues, and brown version, which reminds me of a rainy day at the beach! Four color charts are enclosed, but feel free to put your own color choices to the pattern.
