Cell Phone Cozies

Well, I'm getting a new cell phone. This is my phone I have now. I like it. Even though it is scratched. (That's my own fault... ) But our phone plan is ridiculous.   I decided I am going to use a cell phone cozy for my new phone. I think I stopped using them, because by the time you dig your cell phone out, then you have to take it out of the cozy; you miss the call..   But..  You will save it from getting beat up.   I have been looking for cute cell phone cozies/covers everywhere (to crochet or knit).  I have two Mimi sent me: the green variegated -my phone is too big for it though :(, and the red one which still fits the phone I have; and one Stephanie sent me. I should be getting my new phone this week.  So I have been trying to decide which new cell phone cover to make for it, just for fun.  I like this Monkey cell phone cover. And I found these Monkey gadget covers on Etsy yesterday. I don't want to buy them, though. I want to crochet them myself.  Mimi's puppy and bear cell phone covers are adorable. And look at this bear cozy.  I also like this knitted hoodie Ipod sweater.  Speaking of Ipods, my son wants an Ipod cover too. His Ipod got a scratch on it. (Grrrr!)   He really liked a Captain America one we saw at Walmart, for $20. Of course, they don't have it anymore. And I can't remember exactly what it looked like.  I did find some online, but for more money.  It might have been this one. This morning while doing a search on Ravelry, I found a knitted Captain America Ipod Cozy ! :P  (I don't really think he would like that though...) Here's another one.   And another one. Is it just me or is $40 a lot for an Ipod cover?  I'm so cheap..  I thought this Domo Kun cozy was cute (for my son).   Too many different ideas...  How to decide?...

Idea . . when you make the cozy make a long chain and sc back to the cozy and attach. Then, you can use it to attach the cozy to your purse. WOuld be SO MUCH EASIER to find it then.

oh Tina, that bear cozy is so much more adorable than the one I made! and you don't need to remove it to use your phone, that's so clever! if there's no pattern available, I might just try to create one ;)

The Monkey gadget covers would be nice designs for selling, since they look so easy to make. Thanks for the links Tina!
