NOTES:
1. To change color, work last st of old color to last yarn over. Yarn over with new color and draw through all loops to complete st. Fasten off old color.
2. To make finishing easier, work over ends of old colors as work progresses, or weave in ends as work progresses.
3. Case is crocheted with 2 strands of yarn held together using a small hook.
STRIPE SEQUENCE:
