If you like me intend to cover the world in yarn, then these patterns for Crocheted Laptop Sleeve and Crocheted Computer Bag are another step in that direction!
My first decision was to find the right yarn for these project. I have it in my mind that cotton and wool shed too much. The lint will then be all over my laptop and somehow get into the filter. I do not know if this will actually be the case, but it is a concern of mine. That is why I chose Lana Grossa Secondo, which has a silk thread spun around the core. Not only does it not shed much, but it also looks absolutely georgeous.

As the Crocheted Computer Bag is very spacious and can contain both a 15″ laptop as well as accessories, the straps have to be able to hold the weight. With inspration from the yarn I came up with the idea of crocheting around a clothes line in nylon, which is then sewn onto both bag and the sides of the straps..The pattern is kept very simple, but I could not resist – I had to add some stars!
