Do you love Totoro? I do!! This is my second Totoro tutorial and this time I'll be showing you how to crochet a Totoro phone case cover. This is a perfect amigurumi for beginners tutorial, so if some of you are just starting hooking then this is the perfect project for you. I'm really satisfied with how it turned out, in fact this amigurumi phone case is one of my current favorites. It's so cute! >.<
I actually wanted to add a zipper to it, but didn't have one, so I just left it open as many phone cases are. If some of you tries recreating this phone case adding a zipper to it, then please share some pictures with me on Instagram or Twitter using the hashtag #madiunnie, I would love to see them. :)
