Are you in dire need of a (removable) pocket for your phone, or other electronic device?
Here it is! A knitted pocket on a strap, which can be worn cross body, attached to a belt, or however you wish to wear it.

There are two versions of this pattern: One to match a phone with specific measurements, and one that can be customized based on your gauge and device size. The pattern has instructions on how to find the exact pattern numbers you need.
Please be aware that when customizing, the approximate meterage/yardage needed will be different than the pattern states.
The pattern includes ideas and rough instructions for how to add an additional smaller pocket to the outside of the pocket (to hold your credit cards or something else!).

I have chosen to work a slightly dense fabric, as I find it holds its shape well. It is however also perfectly fine to work it looser - or even tighter. It’s completely up to your preference!

Yarn used:
You can use any yarn you like. For the stated gauge in version 1, use DK weight or fingering/sock weight held double.
For the sample, I used fingering/sock weight yarn held double.
Approximate meterage/yardage needed for the version 1:
120 meters / 135 yards of DK weight; OR
240 meters / 270 yards of fingering weight

Needles: Sample uses 3 mm / US 2.5 circulars for working magic loop; alternatively DPN’s.
Select a needle size that gives you a dense fabric.

Gauge:
Sample uses gauge of 32 sts to 10 cm / 4 inches in 1x1 rib, unstretched; Corresponding to about 18 sts when stretched.
Gauge is not crucial, but it will affect required yardage and final size.

Size:
Version 1: To match a device that is 15 cm / 6” in height, 8 cm / 3.25” in width.
Strap length is 56 cm / 22” (total length 112 cm / 44”)

Version 2: Custom size & gauge. Please be aware that this version will affect the yardage/meterage required.
