iPad Case from an Upcycled Sweater by Lan

I live in San Francisco, and let me tell you: we are as techie as everyone says we are.  It appears that everyone, no matter what their financial status, has bought, won, or obtained an iPad. When I received mine as a bonus from my last job, I felt the familiar twinge of excitement and resentment. I joined the hoard of upwardly mobile yuppies with a big fancy piece of technology that essentially did the same thing as my iPhone. Yeah, I have one of those too. The iPad, however, is pointless with out a transport case.  As mine is the iPad 1, I don't have the option to dress it up with a fancy Smart Cover. So in true craft pirate style I crafted my own awesome bunny cover!

 From an old sweater with a print that I love, I sewed a basic zippered pouch with dimensions that fit my iPad. 

I used some basic cotton for the lining, to keep my iPad nice and safe and scratch-free.

 

Now I can take my iPad everywhere so I can read/Google/download apps/look pretentious on the go. Smooth sailing Pirates :)
