Pattern:

Phone Case Base (in Yellow):

Foundation: Chain 16. Turn, and starting from the second chain from the hook, sc in each chain across (15 sc). This forms the width of the case.
Rows: Ch 1, turn, and sc in each st across (15 sc). Repeat this for 30-40 rows, depending on the height of your phone. Finish off with a sl st to secure the yarn.

Minion Details:

Overalls (in Blue):
- Start at the bottom of the case. Attach blue yarn and ch 1.
- Work in sc across the entire row and continue for about 8-10 rows to create the bottom part of the overalls.
- For the overall straps, ch about 20 (or required length to go over to the back), attach with a sl st to the opposite side. Repeat for the second strap.
- Sew buttons where the straps meet the front of the overalls.
Eyes (using Grey and White):
- Outer Rim (in Grey): Start with a magic ring, sc 6 into the ring. Increase in every stitch in the second round and then every other stitch in the third round until you have a circle large enough to encase the safety eyes.
- Insert Safety Eyes: Place the safety eyes in the center of the grey circles.
- Attach: Sew the grey circles onto the front of the case at an appropriate height to mimic the minion’s goggles.
Goggle Straps (in Black):
- With black yarn, ch a length that wraps around the case width.
- Sc in each ch, then wrap around the case to meet the eyes, sewing in place to look like the strap of the goggles.
Mouth (in Black):
- With black thread, stitch a smiling mouth directly below the eyes.

Assembly:

Make sure all parts are securely sewn onto the base.
Weave in all loose ends for a neat finish.
