So this is actually my third attempt at a glasses case; my first one had a flap on top to keep the glasses in but it didn’t work very well, maybe it’s my style of knitting.
My second I tried to make a drawstring bag so they’d still stay in, well they stay in alright, it’s a pain to get the out.
This one is pretty basic, I’m not happy the other two didn’t work out but maybe I can work on it later.
Also sorry it took me forever to get done, my husband and I had our second anniversary recently as well as I have more than knitting projects going on. I’ve got TONS more projects so when I get tired of one I work on a different one. Which is one of the many reasons it’s taking so long. Plus I think I needed a small break from knitting, my fingers were getting pretty sore. Mainly this case is why, tiny needles + tight knitting = sore fingers.
