I love my gadgets and that's why I make covers for them to protect them from smudges, dust, and scratches.  This is my Wacom Bamboo Tablet.

As you can see is slim.  oh and yes its 100% cotton grown in the USA

I just realized the button might be deterring buyers away.

Kindle Cover Handmade Crochet Orange and White

Using two strands of medium worsted yarn to get this effect.  Its a Kindle cover or Nook cover in pumpking orange and soft white.  Its easy to make.  It consist of singel crochet (sc) stitch and 1 chain alternating.  It only takes me about 30 minutes to fully complete one.

as you can see if fits my Nook Color snugly and with plenty of room to stretch.



Kindle Cover Handmade crochet in winter shade

You're really looking at a Kindle Cover that's been handmade in crochet using left over yarn.  I used medium worsted extra soft yarn.  I just purchased from Walmart.  had some left over from previous project and decided to make a Kindle cover with darker shades.  and it turned out to be perfect.  I love it.  I didn't add a latch which I usually do with my covers.  It fit snugly so I didn't think it needed a latch. 



don't you just want one.  Get one from my etsy shop.  Click the link above "My Shop". 

Nook Cover Handmade Crochet

 
I love it when a good pattern happens.  Could you believe that this is done in single crochet stitch?  I thought it was an original technique.  But I saw someone else on etsy using this technique.  What I mean by that is, I used two strands of medium worsted yarn, a pistachio green that's 100% cotton grown in the USA and a soft white acrylic yarn.  The handle, I used only the green cotton yarn.  I love the handles, it really helps to carry your Nook everywhere.

Handmade Crochet Covers for Nook or Kindle in purple

This pattern is really different from the rest of my pattern, because I didn't form a circle to create this one.  Its actually stitch on both sides.  I love the deep purple color of this Nook cover.  the only thing I wish I could have done a bit better is the opening, maybe I should have crochet around the opening to give it a bit more clean look.

Pink Handmade Crochet Cover for Nook Color or Nook Tablet and Kindle Fire

Once I find a pattern that works, I repeat it often and in this case, Meet my Wonder Lust Pink Handmade Crochet cover that will fit Nook Color, Nook Tablet, Kindle Fire and Android 7" Tablets. 



Nook Cover Sleeve 

Why do I love this particular pattern?

Well, its so easy and quick to execute.
I figured this pattern out by accident.  I had bought a medium worsted yarn as usual but found it to be too skinny.  So I thought... well maybe... if I double the strands... maybe it will be ok.  and it turned out to be more than ok.  It became one of my signature techniques.  Often times I would used two different colors.  

And because I use two strands of yarn, the cover is thicker than usual and more protection for your device.  More cushion for the pushin.  and it turned out to be perfect techniques when creating covers for netbooks and laptops.  Because netbooks and laptops or ipads, need a bit more thickness when making covers for them.  Anyway if you would like to try this pattern, its simple enough.


THE PATTERN

Begin with 35 chains
Connect ends to form circle.
2nd Row:  Chain one, and single crochet in each stitch, slip stitch to end row.
3rd Row:  chain two, (*) skip stitch and single crochet.  Repeat * till end of row.
4th Row:  (*) chain one, single crochet in between post.  Repeat * till end of row.
alternate 3rd row and 4th row - 'till you reach desired height.
