Phone case

Yippeee!!! Our wedding date is set! I reserved the church for Friday evening, March 11th. I can't believe it's so soon! =) Nothing can stop me from smiling today!

Last night while watching a movie, I crocheted my new phone (that was a late Christmas present from the old papadukes) a case. It's a ZTE touch screen phone and probably the nicest phone I'll ever own, since I'm not really interested in all the bells and whistles phones come with these days. Although, I'll admit, having the internet with you everywhere is pretty cool... 
I just chained the width of the phone twice, joined with a slip stitch and then crochet sc all around. I'm just so used to amigurumi making, I'm surprised I didn't start the project with a magic circle, haha. Anyway, it's a bit too long (was paying more attention to the movie?) and I started making what was supposed to be the closing flap for a button too late (did I mention I wasn't paying attention?). To top it all off, I even made the button close hole on the wrong side. Therefore, this is now just an envelope type case. Lol... It's cute and it'll do until I make something better...with a bit more concentration? I think I'll make my dad one before he leaves since we have the same phone now. I can't believe that starting next Monday, we'll be staying at their house for 6 weeks...and hopefully doing a spot of redecorating!! Yay! or Yay?

The phone's inside all safe and warm!

The envelope flap, double chains

The actual phone if you were wondering
I've also half way completed the acorn I wrote about last time, just need to do the top and add the closures. I'll post pictures when it's complete! =)

Happy Tuesday!
