Pink Piggy Phone Cozy
A pink pig to look after your phone
My step-dad’s house is full of pigs. Not real ones but ornaments and decorations with pigs covering them. His family owned a pig farm and he has always loved pigs.
When he requested a phone cozy to protect his new mobile phone, the design just had to be in the shape of a cute pink pig complete with curly tail.
This pattern gives several sizes to fit most mobile phones.
