Pillow

Materials Needed:

• Yarn in colors: yellow, white, brown, red, pink, blue, black.
• Crochet hook appropriate for your yarn.
• Scissors.
• Tapestry needle for sewing.

Instructions:

1. Base of the Phone Case:
   • Foundation Chain: Using yellow yarn, create a foundation chain that matches the width of your phone, plus a few extra stitches for a snug fit.
   • Body Rows: Work in single crochet (sc) rows until the piece is long enough to cover the front and back of the phone, plus an additional 1-2 inches for the overlap flap.
2. SpongeBob’s Face:
   • Head Shape: For the face, continue with yellow yarn. Start by making a rectangular shape in single crochet that fits the front of the phone.
   • Eyes: Use white yarn to make two circles. Start with a magic ring, work 6 sc into the ring, and pull tight. Increase in the next round by doing 2 sc in each stitch (12 sc). Switch to blue yarn and create a smaller circle inside the white one for the iris. Add a small black dot for the pupil and embroider eyelashes with black yarn.
   • Nose and Cheeks: Create a small yellow ball for the nose by making a magic ring, 6 sc into the ring, then a few rows without increasing. Stuff lightly and sew it onto the face. For the cheeks, use pink yarn to make small circles with single crochets, similar to the eyes but smaller.
   • Mouth and Teeth: Use black yarn to embroider a wide smile. Add two small white rectangles above the mouth for teeth.
3. Clothing:
   • Shirt: Below the face, switch to white yarn and work a few rows in single crochet to form the shirt.
   • Tie: For the tie, use red yarn. Create a small triangle by starting with a chain of 4, then work back in sc, decreasing each row until one stitch remains. Attach it below the shirt.
   • Pants: Switch to brown yarn to crochet the pants. Continue with single crochet rows until you reach the desired length. Add details with black yarn to form the belt and belt loops.
4. Arms and Legs:
   • Arms: Use yellow yarn to create small tubes for the arms. Start with a magic ring, work 6 sc into the ring, and continue in the round until the tube is the desired length. Make two and attach them to the sides of the body.
   • Legs: For the legs, start with yellow yarn for the upper legs, switch to white for the socks, and finish with black for the shoes. Each leg should be a small tube, similar to the arms, but with color changes.
5. Assembly:
   • Sewing Parts Together: Use the tapestry needle to sew all the pieces together. Start by attaching the face details to the front piece, then sew the arms and legs in place.
   • Attaching Front to Back: Place the completed front piece on top of the back base (which should also be in yellow yarn). Sew the front and back pieces together along the sides and bottom, leaving the top open for the phone to slide in. Ensure there are openings for buttons and the charging port.

Materials Needed:

• Yarn in colors: red, blue, brown, black, white, yellow, and skin tone.
• Crochet hook suitable for your yarn.
• Pillow stuffing.

4. Arms, Legs, and Gloves:
