I loved taking part in my second A Crocheted Simplicity’s Mini-Mystery Crochet Along! If you didn’t get to join, I’d highly recommend you watch for any new MMCALs as it was so much fun! I loves seeing all the projects people made. For this MMCAL, whether its sunglasses or glasses, protect them with this quick free sunglasses crochet case!

Special Pattern Notes:
It’s easier to work with Color B and C is yardage is precut.
When working with multiple colors, work over yarn with the exception of the beginning and end of each Row using Color A. (Increase yardage if working over Color B and C throughout the entire piece. Estimated yardage does not include this.)
Keep tension on non-working colors when working over them.
Working in front of strands, not over strands, may result in glasses getting caught on strands inside case.
When switching colors, work in new color yarn on last pull through of previous stitch. Each Row will start and end with Color A. Color A is main color of case. Also, color B is frame color. And color C is lens color.

I think in row 4, a color change was missed at the end (or I read it wrong, in which case oops, sorry).
It did have an error in it. I sincerely apologise for that. It has been updated
