Pro Tips and Care Advice

This beginner-friendly crochet phone case is worked with a 5 mm hook, creating a sturdy fabric that holds its shape well.

• Use stitch markers to mark the first stitch of each round so your seams stay aligned.
• Check your gauge before starting; a slightly tight tension helps the case keep its shape nicely.
• Decrease evenly by working two stitches together at regular intervals to shape the top opening.
• Leave a small gap at the top for the phone opening, and weave in ends securely with a yarn needle.
• Stitch a small button loop or snap closure to keep the phone snug inside the case.
• Block the finished piece flat so the edges lie evenly before adding any closures.

Follow these care instructions to keep your phone case looking its best.

• Hand wash gently in cool water with mild soap to protect the fibers.
• Air dry flat away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
• Spot clean small stains with a damp cloth instead of washing the whole piece.
• Avoid machine washing or tumble drying to maintain the shape and texture.
