Whether you need a snug fit for your favorite novel or a protective sleeve for your Qur'an, send me your exact measurements. I build these without pre-set patterns, so we can add little details like attached lace bookmarks or custom closures so your book stays safe and super cute 🎀. I treat every book cover as a tiny architectural project. Since books come in all shapes and sizes, I don't use 'one-size-fits-all' templates. Whether you have a thick hardbound journal, a standard paperback, or a specific Qur'an, I construct the cover to your exact measurements so nothing slides around. ### My Favorite Styles * **Tulip Stitch:** This is the crowd favorite. It is intricate and beautiful, perfect if you want something soft and textured. * **Granny Squares:** If you love that retro, cottagecore vibe, I can join floral granny squares to create a cover that feels like a vintage quilt. ### The Process Once you DM me your idea and measurements, I start crocheting. I use washable acrylic or cotton-blend yarns so your cover stays fresh even if you take it everywhere in your bag. If you want an attached lace bookmark or a specific button closure like a strawberry or heart, just let me know. I’m always down to try something new, so if you have a specific pattern or color palette in mind, let’s make it happen! Remember, because these are made by hand (and sometimes by my sore fingers), they take a bit of time, so I appreciate your patience while I get it just right for you 🫶🏻. ## About Stitches by Sam Hi, I'm Samiya! I'm a total yarn addict and self-proclaimed 'yapper' who turns chaos into cute crochet things.
