TULPESH NETBOOK COVER

Needles: 3mm straight needles, though similar size needles should be fine too
Yarn: DK or worsted weight, though any weight yarn could be used – 1 skein (50g)
Other materials needed: tapestry needle, DPNs or circular needle and two buttons
Pattern:
Cast on 48 stitches or enough to make the cover as wide as your netbook (wide as in the short side)
Knit garter stitch until the piece is long enough to fit around the netbook length-wise (long as in the long side)
Sew up three edges, leaving one of the long sides open
Knit two i-cords using DPNs or a circular needle – roughly 10 cm long each
Sew on two matching buttons on the front and fasten the i-cords on the back
Cast on 24 stitches for a mouse-pocket and knit garter stitch until long enough
Sew on the pocket on two sides, or make it even longer and sew it on three sides
Any questions, please leave a comment or contact me on Ravelry.
