UNIVERSAL KINDLE SAFE
During my recent visit to Australia, my niece was heading off to Switzerland in an exchange semester from her college. Packing was a-frenzy (actually, not.. as my niece is one of the most calm, and organised young ladies I know.. hmmm... but it sounds good .. or should I say 'reads' good, and the mind's eye conjures such lovely images of 'frenzy'.. so..)
Right.. so packing.. and then the tickets.. and she was reminded "don't forget your kindle" (now once again, I digress.. my organised young niece would not 'forget' anything.. but a mum is a mum..)
and here I was confused.. wondering.. kindle?? firewood?? hahah, right!?
Well, Amazon.. you've locked us up in this e-book too now, have you?

Back in Mumbai and my crochet designing, my daughter wanted a quick cover for her mobile phone, and that got me thinking about a cover for a kindle too.. and one that would keep it clean and covered, and yet was a 'flip top' that allowed you to read while still in its neat cover.. and
VOILA ! I designed my "Universal Kindle Safe" which was made to fit a 4.75” x 7.5” x 0.44” (12 cm x 19 cm x 1 cm) kindle.
I used the readily available Oswal 4-ply acrylic and needed only about 35 g with a 4 mm (G) crochet hook - so this is not only a quick gift, but a superb stash buster too.
For Indians : But you could also use Anchor knitting cotton or Red rose yarn for this project
