Cricket's Technicolor Techno-Cozy
Pattern Description from Stitch ‘N Bitch: “My friend Cricket had this horribly beat up cell phone. The battery fell off constantly and the faceplate wouldn’t stay on, so I decided that she needed a cozy to protect it. I got to work that night, and after a few revisions, the cozy was just right for that old phone. Then I realized that, with a few adjustments, my piece could hold just about any techno-accessory, including a PalmPilot or an iPod. Now Cricket has three covers and wants even more!”
