Materials Needed

Introduction

This tutorial guides you to crochet a lightweight, snug, and stylish AirPods Pro case complete with a drawstring and button-loop strap. The design is minimalist and protective, ideal for keeping your AirPods secure. The pattern is easy to customize for larger or smaller sizes!

Finished Size

  • The finished AirPods Pro case fits snugly around standard AirPods Pro dimensions, approx. 2.4 x 1.8 x 0.8 inches (60.6 x 45.2 x 21.7 mm).
  • For other sizes (e.g., original AirPods or third-party cases), adjust the foundation chain length and number of rows.

Materials

  • Yarn/Thread: Aunt Lydia’s Crochet Thread (or equivalent thin crochet thread).
    • Approximate quantity: 50–80 yards.
    • Alternate material: Thick embroidery thread or size 10 crochet thread.
  • Hook Size: 2.0 mm hook (for tight, sturdy stitches).
    • Optional adjustment: Use a hook size slightly larger for looser stitches.
  • Button: Small decorative button for strap closure.
  • Thread and Needle: For sewing on the button.
  • Yarn Needle: To weave in ends.
  • Scissors.

Gauge

  • 8 single crochet (SC) stitches by 10 rows = 1 inch (approx. 2.5 cm).
  • Gauge is critical for achieving a snug fit. Crochet tightly for a compact stitch definition.

Customization Ideas

  1. Yarn Thickness: Use slightly thicker yarn or thread for a sturdier case but adjust the foundation chain accordingly.
  2. Strap Location: Customize the strap’s placement to fit your preferred orientation (e.g., top or side).
  3. Colors and Embellishments: Use multiple thread colors for stripes or add beads to the drawstring’s tassels for a decorative touch.

Special Techniques

  • Crocheting Over the Tail: This seamless technique hides loose yarn ends while securing them within the fabric.
  • Skipping Chains for Open Button Loops: Skipping chains in the strap creates decorative and practical holes for button closure.

Pattern Instructions

Base of the Case

Step 1: Foundation Chain

  1. Using a 2.0 mm hook, chain 15.
    • The length of the chain should match the length of the bottom of your AirPods case. Adjust the number of chains based on your yarn/thread size.

Step 2: Row 1

  1. In the second chain from the hook, place 3 single crochets (SC) into the same stitch.
  2. SC into the next 12 chains.
  3. In the last chain, place 3 SC (this will create the rounded first corner).
  4. Continue working along the bottom side of the chain by placing 1 SC into each of the next 12 stitches.
  5. To finish the row, join with a slip stitch (SL ST) into the first SC.

Stitch Count for Row 1: 30 stitches (12 SC along each side and 3 SC at each rounded corner).

Step 3: Row 2

  1. Chain 1, SC into each stitch around the row (30 SC).
  2. Work in the round (without turning) and continue crocheting into the next row.

Step 4: Row 3 (Increasing for Shape)

  1. Chain 1, place 1 SC into the same stitch.
  2. In the next stitch, place 3 SC to create a rounded corner expansion.
  3. SC into the next 14 stitches.
  4. In the next stitch, place 3 SC.
  5. SC into the remaining stitches around, finishing the row with a slip stitch.

Stitch Count for Row 3: 34 SC.

Body of the Case

Step 5: Rounds 4–20

  1. Chain 1, place 1 SC in each stitch around. Work in continuous rounds to avoid visible seams.
  2. Repeat until the case reaches 20 rows in total (or approximately covers the case entirely with extra height to allow drawstring closure).

Drawstring

  1. Cut 3 strands of thread, each approximately 3 feet (36 inches) long.
  2. Knot the ends of the threads together, and braid the strands until you reach the end. Secure with a knot and trim.
  3. Weave the drawstring in and out of the top row of SC stitches, ensuring it pulls the opening closed evenly. Add tassels or fringe to the ends for decoration, if desired.

Strap with Button Loop

Step 6: Foundation Chain for Strap

  1. Chain 45 (or desired strap length).

Step 7: Strap Row

  1. In the second chain from the hook, place 1 double crochet (DC).
  2. DC into the next chain.
  3. Skip 2 chains, then place 1 DC into the 3rd chain (this creates the buttonhole).
  4. DC into each chain across until 4 chains remain.
  5. Skip the next 2 chains, then place 1 DC into each of the last 2 chains.

Step 8: Button

  1. Use a needle and thread to sew the button onto the side of the case, ensuring it aligns with one of the buttonholes on the strap.
  2. Test the closure by looping the strap over and securing it with the button. Adjust strap or button placement, if necessary.

Finishing Touches

  1. Weave in all ends securely, ensuring the drawstring and strap are firmly attached.
  2. Block the case lightly to shape it and enhance its appearance.

Conclusion

Congratulations! You now have a super cute and practical AirPods Pro case. The compact design, drawstring closure, and easy-to-attach strap make it functional for everyday use, while the crochet thread ensures durability and charm.

Tips for Success

  • Tight Stitches Are Key: For small projects like an AirPods case, tight stitches provide better durability. A smaller hook size helps achieve this.
  • Avoid Overstretching: If using thicker yarn or thread, adjust your stitch count and rows to ensure a snug fit. Too tight may make it difficult to insert the case; too loose may cause it to slip out.
  • Customization: Experiment with colors, adding stripes, ombre effects, or embroidery to personalize your case.

Important Remarks

The final product should hug your AirPods Pro case comfortably and snugly, with the drawstring and button-loop strap keeping it securely in place. This project is a quick and satisfying solution to protect your favorite tech accessory while showcasing your crochet skills!
