Crochet Griddle Cell Phone Wristlet Pouch for a female - Knot My Designs

Griddle Cell Phone Wristlet Pouch

With the advent of spring come the life and the colours. Trees that looked withered in winters are full of life; flowers blossom creating a mystic view. As if someone has painted the world around. Remember the Cherry Blossom tree?

I captured this from a Cherry Blossom Festival. This festival is celebrated every year from March 15- April 20, in various states of the US. It is celebrated as a token of friendship with Japan. Cherry trees, also called “Sakura” in Japanese, were planted in Sakura Park, Manhattan in 1912. It was sowed across the eastern US and San Diego over the years.

In Japan, Hanami (flower viewing) is a traditional custom celebrated every year during this season. It is to remind us about the changing seasons and inspire us to adopt and adapt to the change. After a harsh winter, the leaves, the buds, the flowers blossom to greet the new season.

The pictures and its colours motivated me to bring this look in a mobile wristlet pouch. I used peach –the shade most resembling the cherry blossoms– as the base colour and white edging to give a feel of the white snow melting off the edges of the tree branches.

Process:

This pouch is created from the bottom to top, and to do this we start with the 1st row by turning the cover inside out. Once done, we change back to the right side and start with the edge. I added a crocheted loop on one side of the mobile cover to tie wristlet band. I also stitched the button and loop on the cover to close the opening.

The pattern is a series of Single Crochet stitch(SC) and Double Crochet stitch(DC) alternatively.

R1: Starting with chain 35, join at the initial chain to form the loop. Total 35 chains.

R2: Ch 1, SC, DC; repeat throughout the row ending with SC and join at the ch 1. Total 35 stitches, 18 SC, 17 DC.

R3: Ch 1, DC in previous SC, SC in previous DC; repeat throughout the row ending with DC and join at ch 1. Total 35 stitches, 18 DC, 17 SC.

Repeat R2 and R3 alternatively till you achieve the desired height.

Brim with side loop:-

R1: Change the yarn to white and continue R3 for 1 row. Total 35 SC.

R2: Chain 3, SC from 1st stitch from the previous row. Total 35 SC, 3 Chain.

R3: SC around including 3 SC in the chain. Total 38 SC.

Brim without side loop:-

R1: Change to white colour, single crochet (SC) around. Total 35 SC.

Continue R1 for 4 rows and sew the end.

Crochet Wristlet: Chain 60-70 based on the wristlet length. Sew the ends in the inside of the pouch.

Style Aisle:

  • Choose the yarn colour based on the palette in your wardrobe. Experiment and enjoy the beautiful colours.
  • Go creative with the button choice.

Materials:

  1. Yarn: Sweet N Cream – Tangerine, Sweet N Cream – White
  2. Crochet Hook: 4 mm
  3. Needles
  4. Sewing Needle
  5. Thread
  6. Scissors
  7. Measuring Tape
  8. Stitch Marker: My stitch markers are the mini safety pins we get from clothing tags. 
  • Note: Feel free to play around with different branded yarns. They should give the consistent flow of the pattern using a constant number crochet hook.
  • Either go for the yarns with the same recommended crochet hook OR choose the yarn and change the crochet hooks along as you proceed with the pattern. This might be tricky for beginners.

Happy Crocheting!!!
