I didn't use a pattern. Just cut some cotton for the front and back and some felt pieces for the padding......all a little bigger than the Kindle. I attatched a little bit of green braid for the loop and a button for the closure. I did a repeat this afternoon for a friend of Lee's and it took less than 30 mins.
Let's see.....oh yes, I was going to share about my Christmas projects. I've made a ton of hats. Tons. And I made an adorable shawl for my mother-in-law. I'll try to get a picture of that. And then I made coasters. I actually cut up the blocks from a quilt top that I made but never got laid out right. I traced around a CD and made a sandwich with random pieces and a same-sized piece of felt. They are very, very cute.
This week I started/finished a knitted baby bib. I'm not sure of the practicality of them but it is adorable! Now I'm working on a cowl for me. Picture to come when I get it finished. (I'm not the best at remembering pictures!)
But isn't that kindle cover adorable????? Happy New Year!

Hi Carie!
I got a Kindle DX for Christmas and I'm loving it too!
Thanks for your help :-)
Love your blog. I'm going to subscribe so I won't have to "remember" to come read.
Blessings
I love the cover, Carie! I have a Nook, and as soon as I get some projects finished up, I am going to knit a cover for it.
