Are you ready for another Halloween-inspired crochet pattern? Hopefully, you are because I’m really excited to share this project with you! I love it when I can fuse two of my favorite hobbies together to make one project. This time, I’m meshing my love for three things, my love for stationery, witchy things, and crochet! I crafted this spellbook cover for my Hobonichi Techo. This can also fit any other A6 notebook. I can up with this idea because I can be frugal at times and really didn’t want to invest in a new Hobonichi cover so I decided to crochet my own!
If you plan on making this cover, I highly recommend using a sturdy yarn. Use whatever colors you want. The pattern for the cover itself is really simple. The surface crochet part is optional, you can always just cut out the decorations from felt.
If you crochet this project, you can post it on Ravelry or tag me @mooeyscrochet so that I can see your creation. If you want to learn how to crochet, watch my crochet how-to video here.
