They are quick to make, and then you can joined them together in what form you want. One can make a cover for a mobile phone, using a thicker yarn we can make a cover for a tablet, or a paper book cover.</p> <p>But sometimes, at the end of the day, one is a little bit tired to follow a more complex pattern, so recently I try a more simple approach: making a chain with the wanted size, and then making double crochets on the back loop of the previous row, which gives it some texture. </p><p>I’ve tried fingerless gloves, a sleeve for an ereader, and a sleeve for books or notebooks to which I added a pocket. And it’s really simple: you just need to know how to make a chain, a double crochet, and a simple crochet (to join it).</p> <p><a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://paulasimoesblog.wordpress.com/tag/book-cover/" target="_blank">#BookCover</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://paulasimoesblog.wordpress.com/tag/book-sleeves/" target="_blank">#BookSleeves</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://paulasimoesblog.wordpress.com/tag/booklook/" target="_blank">#BookLook</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://paulasimoesblog.wordpress.com/tag/books/" target="_blank">#books</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://paulasimoesblog.wordpress.com/tag/crafts/" target="_blank">#Crafts</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://paulasimoesblog.wordpress.com/tag/crochet/" target="_blank">#Crochet</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://paulasimoesblog.wordpress.com/tag/diy/" target="_blank">#diy</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://paulasimoesblog.wordpress.com/tag/granny-squares/" target="_blank">#grannySquares</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://paulasimoesblog.wordpress.com/tag/livros/" target="_blank">#livros</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://paulasimoesblog.wordpress.com/tag/phone-sleeve/" target="_blank">#PhoneSleeve</a></p>
