Ch 1 and sc down the edge to neaten it. Be sure you’re capturing two loops on the side as you crochet into the sts on the edge of the hat. Cut yarn and knot, weave in to hide end. Cut yarn leaving a long tail, knot and sew onto face. Ignore that the hat is complete in this picture (that comes later). But wait, maybe he is! I couldn’t resist adapting our loopy Santa-inspired pattern into a meaner version of the Grinch. I didn’t cut the loops on this one, but I’m tempted to make another one to experiment with the different textures.
Now, add in the Scrubby yarn along with the green. Continue to single crochet with both yarns until the number of rows reaches the top of your own particular cell phone. If you saw our crochet phone pouch on Thursday, this one is based on a very similar pattern. Although minus the loopy texture, it still mimics the Grinch’s fur like appearance, thanks to the addition of a scrubby yarn! But, If you prefer, you can always use our original crochet phone pouch with its loopy pattern and a green cotton worsted, then cut the loops for a textured look! If you don’t already know, all the money we earn from pattern sales (and from all income sources) go directly to our Alzheimers’ Crochet for a Cure charity fund driveeach year. We started our fundraiser over a year ago in memory of both our moms :).
Once decreases are done, you might find it easier to change to a smaller crochet hook to finish the side. While using orange, MC, sc 4, join and fasten off. Make eye then sew the iris onto the white of the eye. Eye If you want to make the loopy crochet pouch, you can follow this previous video tutorial and swap out the colours of yarn. However, I did do the eye of this second version of the Grinch very differently, so if you want the pattern and actual video tutorial specifically for this style, visit our Ribblr shop for the ePattern (it’s on sale until the holiday). Or see our special offer below.
Our Grinch phone case is the second in our series of Christmas phone cases! How the Grinch That Stole Christmas is such a heartwarming story, so that’s the character that inspired our second holiday crochet phone case. The happier, friendlier guy who hadn’t stopped Christmas from coming. The fellow who realizes “maybe Christmas doesn’t come from a store. Maybe Christmas … perhaps … means a little bit more!” Cut a long tail. Using a tapestry needle weave in and out of the top sts and pull tight to close the opening. If you’d like to gift the loopy Mr. Grinch pattern to a crocheter on your Christmas list, the ePatterns available in our Ribblr shop are on sale until the holidays! Using a 5.0 hook, chain enough to reach from side to side. The number of chains will depend on your gauge and size of phone. When you measure the chain, don’t stretch it. I did about 14 chains to start, but yours could be different. Be sure to measure against your cell phone before continuing (note that we’ll be adding more stitches in next steps).If you watch to the end of the video, I make my singing debut! But don’t worry. I’ll definitely be keeping my day job 🤣🤣🤣!
However, if you want to crochet this phone case right along with me, watch this video: Mr. Grinch Singing Debut Instead, if you prefer, you can also cut felt and sew it on. Be as creative as you like. In my case, I only did one eye and eyebrow. That’s because the hat, which acts as a flap to close the case, covers the left half of the face. Like my friend Michelle says, it’s very Picasso like when the flap is up!Don’t forget to visit these awesome ‘ Phone Decor‘ projects from our creative friends below for more unique ideas!
Ch 2. Sl st into next st. Sl st into original st and continue sl st to end, which should be 5 sl st. Cut both yarns, knot and hide the tail ends using a darning needle or crochet hook on the wrong side of work. Add a red button to close the flap/hat, if desired, choosing one small enough to go through the stitches. It’s time for another International Bloggers Club (IBC) challenge and this month our theme is Phone Decor.
