Crochet Camera Lens Cozy: Protect Your Gear with Style
A Crochet Camera Lens Cozy is a charming and practical accessory for any photographer's gear! Not only does it add a touch of personal flair to your equipment, but it also protects your precious camera lens from scratches, dust, and minor bumps. Crocheted with soft yarn in various colors and patterns, these cozies can be customized to match your style and stand out in a sea of standard camera gear.
They are a fun and creative way to show off your crafty side while keeping your lens safe and secure. Plus, they make for thoughtful gifts for fellow photography enthusiasts who appreciate both functionality and aesthetics. Whether you are a beginner or experienced crocheter, creating a cozy for your camera lens is a gratifying project that combines artistry with practicality!The Steps
Lens Cover
Row 1: Form a magic loop with 6 chains.
Row 2: Chain 1. 2x single crochet all the way.
Row 3: Chain 1. 1x single crochet first stitch, 2x single crochet in next stitch. Repeat until the end of this row.
Row 4: Chain 1. 1x single crochet first stitch, 1x single crochet next stitch, 2x single crochet in the next stitch (3rd one). Repeat until the end of this row.
So basically you'll add 1 more of your 1x single crochet in every new row. Your circle will get bigger eventually. All lenses have different sizes so I recommend you to measure it. Mine has 6 rows total.
The Body
Once you've finished the lens cover, make a long chain. This will be the length of the diameter of your lens. Again, all lenses have different sizes, so measure, measure! Mine has 40 chains total.
Row 1: 40 chains.
Row 2: Chain 1. Single crochet all the way.
