| Poppy and Forget-me-nots |
I am still making for my Christmas stall, and realised that although I have quite a lot of things for children, perhaps I should have a few more things for the ladies. So I have been busy making these hand-knitted and embroidered phone or ipod cosies. I am having great fun deciding which flowers to embroider.
I have improved my previous phone cosy pattern. It is now knitted completely the other way up, starting at the rib top. The top is now more stretchy, which makes it easier to get your phone in and out. The bottom is now grafted like the toe of a sock, which I think makes it just a bit neater. I am going to put it on ravelry and Craftsy as a free pattern once I have typed it up.

| Forget-me-not |
These cosies, which will fit either an ipod touch, iphone, or a mobile phone that is approx 11cm by 6cm, can be found in my Etsy Shop. There are a few more on the way. I would love to know if you have any ideas for flowers which you think might be appealing?

You've managed to capture the poppy beautifully. What about a large sunflower or perhaps a daisy xx
ReplyDeleteThey are so pretty and the detail is amazing;

Beautiful. Such wonderful embroidery. These will make excellent gifts.
ReplyDeleteOooh, I love the snowdrops. Suggestion: go back and look at the first picture without thinking of it as a phone cozy...wouldn't it make a FANTASTIC hot water bottle cover? Just saying...a little pick me up when someone is feeling not so well.
ReplyDeleteSono veramente simpatici!
ReplyDeleteCara Ginx, mi piacerebbe tanto se anche tu visitassi il mio blog http://minimondocreativoditesselleelle.blogspot.it/
Buona serata,

These are so pretty, I love the snow drops! x
ReplyDeletereally lovely. fox gloves will be great, and I adore pea flowers too.
ReplyDeleteThese are the cutest covers ever! And your embroidery skills are amazing. So nice.
ReplyDeleteReally beautiful embroidery work, very neat stitches. And such a good idea to make cozies for (i)phones, something nice to give.
ReplyDeleteOk, those are about the cutest things! Love the embroidery. :)
ReplyDeleteWhen I first saw this photo, I thought it was mittens. How cute would that be? Embroidered mittens? Thanks for the inspiration!. Your phone cozies are adorable.
ReplyDeleteOoooh, excellent choice, these are beautiful. I can imagine they will sell like hotcakes!
ReplyDeleteLovely! I thought they were hottie covers when I first looked at them. I love the poppy :) x
ReplyDeleteOh I just adore your wooly embroidery. The poppy is fantastic. Lovely dovely indeedy.
ReplyDeleteThey are gorgeous :).
ReplyDeleteReally really love these cosies, the snowdrops and forget-me-not are my favourites :-)
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, this is so pretty! I'm loving the poppy. Definitely had to pin. Thank you for sharing on Inspire Me Wednesday!

Very gorgeous! I would love to see lavender...!
ReplyDeleteSuch a great idea, they are beautiful!
ReplyDeletethe poppy is so beautiful
ReplyDeleteI thought they were mittens at first too. :-)
ReplyDeleteMight I suggest Columbines, Snap Dragons and Lilies??
I was another one thought they were mittens! How about a Christmas themed one - Poinsettia? Anyway they are really nice whatever they are used for in the end!
ReplyDeleteWhat lovely phone covers! The embroidery is just lovely.
ReplyDeleteI really like the way you make your phone cozies extra special with the embroidery. They are really lovely. The best cozy I have seen for a long time.
ReplyDeletethese are so gorgeous! the finish does look really neat from the photos and i just love your embroidered flowers, especially the forget-me-knots - perhaps also a helpful aid memoir not to leave the phone anywhere! :)
ReplyDeleteThey are all so lovely especially the poppy one. Hope you have a good week.
ReplyDeleteThese are amazing I will defiantly be keeping an eye open for the pattern when it comes out.
ReplyDeletePopped over from Handmade Monday.
They are really lovely, how about a gorgeous daisy or buttercup? It's a great way to keep your phone safer in your handbag - and, I suspect, makes it easier to find in there (I'm always losing mine in my bag)
ReplyDeleteThey are so cute - love the poppy!
ReplyDeleteYour embroidery is so pretty, I love all the flowers but especially the forget-me-nots and the snowdrops, and the poppy oh I like them all, for suggestions I'd say pansy's or daisy's.

The detailing on your flowers is wonderful, they are so pretty!
ReplyDeleteLovely phone cases - you've already done my favourite flower, the poppy, but I'm a bit taken by sunflowers at the moment too as they are so cheerful
ReplyDeleteThese are super cute :)
ReplyDeleteGreat phone cosies, such a contrast with the tech phones that go inside, and gorgeous! thanks for sharing on craft schooling Sunday!
ReplyDeleteThese cosies are lovely, especially the forget-me-nots one.
ReplyDeleteI love the forget-me-not cosy. I quite like the look of lavender.
ReplyDeleteReally cute! I like the red flower! Thanks for sharing @ Submarine Sunday!
ReplyDeleteSo creative, I think the poppy is my favorite- the grey and red are a perfect pairing! Thank you for sharing with the Clever Chicks Blog Hop! I hope you’ll join us again next week!
