Crochet a Cute & Handy Phone Stand: The “Booty“ Phone Holder Tutorial89

Hey crochet lovers! Are you tired of your phone awkwardly perched on a stack of books while you're following a pattern or watching a tutorial? Do you crave a quirky and functional phone holder that's as unique as you are? Then get ready to whip up this adorable "Booty" phone stand! This charming little crochet project is surprisingly simple to make, even for beginners, and it’s the perfect way to add a touch of playful personality to your crafting space (or anywhere else, really!).

This tutorial will guide you through creating a fun, cheeky phone holder shaped like a pair of… well, you get the idea! It's perfect for holding your phone at a comfortable viewing angle, and its compact size means it won't take up much space on your desk or nightstand. Let's dive into the materials and step-by-step instructions!

Materials You'll Need:

Before you get started, gather these essential materials:
Yarn: Approximately 50-75 grams of worsted weight yarn in your favorite color (or colors!). I used a bright pink for a playful look, but feel free to get creative! A contrasting color for the "details" is also a fun option.
Crochet Hook: A size H/8 (5.0 mm) crochet hook is recommended for worsted weight yarn. Adjust the hook size if you're using a different weight of yarn.
Scissors: For snipping your yarn.
Yarn Needle: For weaving in the ends.
Stuffing (optional): If you want a slightly firmer, more three-dimensional booty, you can use fiberfill or other stuffing material.

Abbreviations:

To make following the instructions easier, here are some common crochet abbreviations used in this tutorial:
ch: chain
sc: single crochet
inc: increase (2 single crochet in one stitch)
dec: decrease (crochet two stitches together)
sl st: slip stitch
rnd: round

The Crochet Pattern:

Let's get crafting! This pattern is designed to be relatively simple, focusing on creating the basic shape. Feel free to adjust the number of rounds to achieve your desired size.

Round 1:

Make a magic ring (or chain 4 and slip stitch into the first chain to form a ring). Ch 1 (does not count as a stitch). 6 sc in the ring. Sl st to join. (6 stitches)

Round 2:

Ch 1. (inc) in each stitch around. Sl st to join. (12 stitches)

Round 3:

Ch 1. *sc, inc*. Repeat from * to * around. Sl st to join. (18 stitches)

Rounds 4-8:

Continue increasing in the same manner as Round 3, adding 6 stitches per round. (24, 30, 36, 42, 48 stitches)

Rounds 9-12:

Work single crochet stitches in each stitch around. This will create the main body of the booty.

Rounds 13-15:

Begin decreasing. Follow the pattern from Round 3 in reverse. This gradually reduces the number of stitches to achieve a rounded shape. Remember to decrease evenly around the circle. (42, 36, 30 stitches)

Round 16:

Continue decreasing to about 18 stitches. Fasten off, leaving a tail for weaving in.

Optional: If using stuffing, fill the booty now before closing the top. Gently pull the opening closed using a yarn needle and remaining tail. Weave in all loose ends.

Adding the “Details” (Optional):

This is where you can get really creative! You can add simple details like:
Embroidered Lines: Use embroidery floss to add lines to give the booty more definition and shape.
Small Buttons: Sew on small buttons for a playful touch.
Contrasting Color Stitches: Add a small section of a different colored yarn to create highlights or shadows.

Let your imagination run wild and add any other details that strike your fancy!

Finishing Touches and Using Your Booty Phone Stand:

Once you’ve completed the crocheting and added any details, you have a cute and functional phone stand! The curved shape of the “booty” provides a stable and comfortable place to rest your phone.

This tutorial provides a basic framework. Feel free to experiment with different yarn colors, weights, and hook sizes to create your own unique version. Add embellishments, change the number of rounds, or try different stitch patterns to customize your "Booty" phone stand to perfectly reflect your style.

Happy crocheting, and remember to share your creations with me on social media! I can't wait to see your adorable booty phone stands!
