Hi pals! Welcome to todays blog, where I am showing you how to make your very own Kindle Scribe or Kindle Paperwhite or WHATEVR YOU WANT TO PUT IN IT knit pouch. :)
This one came to me when my friend ordered me this GORGEOUS rainbow yarn, and my scribe happened to be sitting next to me. 6 hours and zero hydration later and I had a pouch for my scribe for when I want to take it with me in my tote bag.
AND THEN my sweet friends Emily and Emily were being cute on Instagram and I decided they both needed their own knit pouches for their paperwhites. East coast Emily already has hers, and West coast Emily will get hers soon when we meet up for coffee.
I had some of this Hobbii Friends Cotton Silk leftover from my Magical Garden Cardigan, and it was just enough to make one pouch in the leftovers of each color. I really really love this yarn, and the link below isn’t an affiliate one, but If you can afford it, get some. It’s the most perfect cotton imo.
Notes
- Please read the pattern before starting. I write these a little differently than some people and include notes and tidbits I wrote down to try and make things as clear as possible.
- I do not provide instructions on how to use double pointed needles (DPNs)or do an -cord bind off with them. I DO however have a tutorial on how to do it with a Cordsmith. You can check that out here.
