Sometimes you simply have no choice but to make something on the fly. Such was the case on our holiday last week when I had exhausted all my efforts in finding a phone holder for my car – I was absolutely sure that I would pick one up in any shop in Britain, Germany, Belgium, Switzerland or even Luxembourg – think again!
Travelling all over Europe you need somewhere for your phone with the SatNav, and my first rig was a cup with a bungee attached to the air vents and was fine until it started to bend the cable coming out of the base of my new phone.
What to do? Crochet one of course! I had a tiny bit of yarn left over from the tea cosy the night before and I simply started stitching and this useful, if rather ugly, holder emerged…..
It does the job. It holds the phone in a position so you can see the screen and allows it to be charged on the go. As useful as it has been over the last week or so, when I get home a new and more permanent version is on the top of my shopping list.
good thinking! 🙂
They say that necessity is the mother of invention 😄
Not ugly!! Quirky! And another problem solved with crochet. Haha
