My mom called me on Sunday and made a request for a crocheted pouch for her phone. She wanted something that would hang from her neck and just hold her phone, possibly snug, and it didn't need a flap. I went over yesterday and made a chain to get the width right, then went around the chain with single crochet stitches to get the depth right. I measured the height/length of the phone and did the rest in my own dwelling, so I hope it's right. I'll find out later today.
It's much more blue than shown, but I couldn't get a good picture. Go figure. The pouch is (hopefully) sized for her phone (which is huge, by the way) and the strap is fifty inches long. I measured her and where she wanted it. Hopefully, it works for her. I really don't know when I became brave enough to make something without a pattern.
While I was at my parents' house, my niece made a request of her own: mittens for her daughter. I have never made mittens. I've made myself a lovely pair of fingerless gloves, but never mittens. I made one last night/this morning, though. :-)
I used this pattern. My wrist hates me and I'm pretty sure it's too big, but it's done. I'll wait to see how it fits before making a second --and/or a smaller pair. At least it's done, though. :-)
Well, that's about it. Sorry for the lack of content.
