I often will take my laptop places… coffee shops, friends houses, airplane travel…. So why not gussy up your laptop with this gorgeous Waterfalls laptop case?  I love this case because not only is it eye catching, it’s pretty!  And let’s be honest… my accessories HAVE to be pretty!  I made this case for my HP, but it can easily be tweaked to be smaller for an ipad, or smaller laptop.  See below for how to do this!

And aren’t these colors so pretty??

Finishing

Lay grey panel on top of wrong side of long front panel, turn both pieces over and begin single crocheting together both pieces by starting on the front to right corner.  Single crochet around entire bag including front flap until you reach the original starting point.  Fasten off.

Loops – attach yarn in between 2^nd and 3^rd pattern of spikes and ch 18.  Attach back into same st with a ss.  SS around entire loop once more.  Fasten off.  Make second loop in between same 2^nd and 3^rd spike pattern on other side.

Attach toggles on between 20^th and 21^st row from the bottom underneath the loops.

To make this case smaller, simply decrease by 6 stitches to the size you need!

Finished case is 16.5″ long x 12″ tall.
