Granny Square Laptop Cozy and Tiny Pouches


I've made this laptop cozy quite a while ago. It was my first granny square project ever. I've spent lots of time trying to find good buttons for it, that's why it was complete only recently. It doesn't fit my laptop, so i don't yet know what to do with it. Will probably put it on my Etsy shop, but should first measure it properly.



I had some yarn left so i made these little pouches. I've no idea what you can store in them but i find them quite cute.

Last Weekend Before School Starts: Crocheted Jar Cozies


After having finished my stash basket i've started working on jar cozies that i wanted to do for a long time. I really needed them to cover the boring looking jars in my apartment.


First, i've done the grey jar cozy. I followed a tutorial first, but my jar's shape was different from the one in the tutorial, so i continued on my own. Unfortunately, i don't have a link to the tutorial anymore, i saved the pdf on my computer. But it wasn't anything difficult, just making a chain long enough to wrap around the bottom of the jar. Then half double crocheting the whole way, adding or skipping stitches when needed, depending on the shape of the jar.


After having finished the grey jar cozy i realized it isn't difficult at all, so i made another one for the plastic pot in which i keep the basil. I've added the last row with a wavy stitch to make it even prettier.

Another soft case


I bought myself a wireless mouse to use with my laptop. But i couldn't let it float around in my bag unprotected. So i knitted this stripy pouch for my mouse to feel soft and safe.

Little sister's birthday gift


My little sister has birthday today. She is 10 now! She got her first digital camera from parents, so i decided to knit a softcase for her camera.


She's also into knitting, sewing and all kinds of DIY, so in addition to the softcase i gave her a book with 35 sewing projects for kids. I really liked the projects in the book, you can sew dolls and other soft toys as well as pillows, totes and other easy stuff. My sister got really excited about the book, she told she wants to try sewing everything from there.

Knitted soft cases


I don't know why i haven't blogged about this before, but i have a little addiction. I knit a custom soft case for almost every little piece of equipment i get.

I've knitted cases for my film cameras





for my tiny synth



for my flute


and even for my phone



I like trying out new patterns on those cases, because they are small and easy to make again if it doesn't go well from the first time. Actually, after having made those cases i got an idea for the next Jozik tape release cover. You'll get to see it soon!
