Easy Hand Stitched Fair Isle Phone Pouch

"Protect your phone with this cute Fair Isle Pouch. It's sturdy, hard-wearing and even splash proof! There really is no greater way for a stitcher to look after their device. Stay true to the pattern and recreate the one I made or personalise it with your favourite colours. It's the perfect project for beginners who want to have a go at needlepoint and make something that looks awesome and also for more advanced stitchers who want to make a 3D hand sewing project without the stress and complications of fabric. What are you waiting for? Get stitching and prepare to wow your friends the next time you whip out your phone!"

NotesFred's Top Making Tip: It's tempting to cut long lengths of yarn to sew with but if you keep them to around 12" long, they're much less likely to tangle and will be easier to sew with.

Bobbin's Design Tip: You can make this in any colourway you fancy! If you're not colour confident try swapping the petrol blue to violet, the wine red to orange and dark mustard to green.
