Avex's Handphone Pouch


This is the handphone pouch I've made for Avex. Instructions as follows:

Materials

1 roll of Panda's Regal 4 ply cotton yarn (Black)
About a meter or so of Panda's Woolbale 8 ply yarn (COL 03)
Wool/Tapestry needle
1 pair of 5mm needles (I used circular ones)

Instructions

Cast on 17 sts. Seed stitch. (Multiples of 4 sts + 1 sts.)
Row 1: p1, [k3, p1] til end
Row 2: purl to end
Row 3: knit to end
Row 4: purl to end
Row 5: k2, p1 [k3, p1], til last sts, k1
Row 6: purl to end
Row 7: knit til end
Row 8: purl to end

Knit until the cloth can cover the handphone you're making it for, leaving about 2 cm's worth of allowance to make the drawstring hole.

For drawstring
Cut yarn to half. Twist it double, making that thick kinda string. I know what I mean though you might not, sorry. Make 2. Stick one through one way and the other one the other. Tie the ends that come out together. Trim.

Note: The seed stitch really does NOT show up well on such big stitches. It's okay if you just do a garter stitch. Much easier and there's no need to keep count and so on. You can also do other types of knit & purl patterns (meaning, no cabling or lace) to get the same size as the one I did. Or something like that.
