Step-by-Step Pattern
1. The Core Square (Beige Yarn)
-
Round 1: Start with a magic ring. Chain 2. Work 3 dc into the ring, then chain 2. Repeat the pattern of (3 dc, chain 2) three more times. Pull the ring tight. [01:28]
-
Round 2: Slip stitch to the corner space. Chain 2. Work (3 dc, chain 2, 3 dc) into the corner space. Repeat this for all four corners. Fasten off. [02:55]
2. Body Expansion (Blue and Beige Yarn)
-
Round 3 (Blue): Attach Blue yarn to a corner. Chain 2. Work (3 dc, chain 2, 3 dc) in the corner. In the side space, work 3 dc. Repeat around all sides. [05:07]
-
Round 4 (Blue): In the corners, work (3 dc, chain 2, 3 dc). On the sides, work a specific sequence: 1 dc in the first space, a double crochet decrease (dc2tog) between the two side spaces, and 1 dc in the second space. [07:11]
-
Round 5 (Beige): Switch back to beige. Attach to the first stitch of a side. Chain 2. Work 3 dc on the sides and the standard corner pattern (3 dc, chain 2, 3 dc). [09:47]
-
Round 6 (Beige): Repeat the same stitch pattern as Round 5 to increase the height of the pouch. [10:30]

Round 7 (Green): Change to green yarn. Repeat the same pattern as Rounds 5 and 6 to finish the main body. [11:36]
3. Handles and Finishing (Blue Yarn)
-
Round 8: Work 7 sc across the edge. Chain 15 to form the first handle loop. Attach to the next corner peak. Work 10 sc across the next side, then chain 15 for the second handle. Finish with sc across the remaining stitches. [13:44]
-
Round 9: Work sc into each stitch of the previous row. For the handle loops, work 15 slip stitches along each chain to reinforce the handles and give them a smooth finish. [15:25]
Tutor’s Suggestions
The tutor advises weaving in your yarn tails as you work each color change to avoid a messy interior. They also suggest ensuring your corner chain-2 spaces are consistent in size, as this maintains the square shape and provides a clean anchor for the next round of stitches. [03:54]
Uses
-
AirPod Case: Perfectly fits standard earbud charging cases.
-
Mini Coin Purse: Use it to store loose change or folded bills.
-

Conclusion
This Crochet AirPod Case is a functional piece of art that protects your electronics with style. By mastering these granny square rounds and handle integrations, you produce a professional-looking accessory that serves as both a practical tool and a fashion statement.
Quick Tip: When working the final handle round, use a light tension for the 15 slip stitches. If you pull too tight, the handle will curl and shrink; keeping it loose ensures the loop remains large enough to easily hook onto your finger or a carabiner! [15:25]
