Don’t you love a crochet project you can actually use — something you can slip into your bag, set on your desk, or proudly gift to a friend.

That’s exactly what makes the Daisy Granny Square Book Cover Pattern so special. It’s not just a pretty cover for your favourite novel — it’s a clever, flexible pattern that lets you create three beautiful pieces from the same set of granny squares.

Let me show you how.

🌼 1. One Crochet Granny Square Project — The Daisy Card Purse

If you’ve made a granny square before, you already have everything you need to create this little beauty.

This crochet Daisy Card Purse is made with just one granny square from the pattern. Simply fold it, seam the sides, and add a small zip or button — and you’ve got a sweet little pouch for coins, earphones, or cards.

It’s a perfect scrap-buster project and a great way to test out new colour combinations before making larger items.

Try this: make a few in matching colours and keep one in your project bag, one in your car, and one as a quick handmade gift.

💛 Start small and finish fast — the Daisy Pattern includes full instructions for the coin purse, from fold to finishing touch. → Grab the pattern here

💻 2. Two Crochet Granny Squares Project — The iPad or Tablet Sleeve

Ready for your next quick win? Two granny squares joined together become a stylish, soft, and surprisingly practical iPad sleeve.

It’s the perfect way to protect your tablet while creating something you can be proud of.
The thicker stitches provide natural padding, while the daisy centres give it that cheerful, handcrafted look that’s hard to find in store-bought covers.

Use cotton or cotton-blend yarns for durability, and line it with fabric if you want extra structure.

✨ Make it in a weekend and actually use it every day — the Daisy Pattern shows you exactly how to join, size, and finish your iPad sleeve beautifully and gives you the exact steps for adjusting the size, so you can fit your device perfectly.

📖 3. Four Crochet Granny Squares Project — The Classic Crochet Book Cover

And now for the project that started it all — the Daisy Crochet Book Cover.

Made from four joined granny squares, it transforms any notebook or paperback into something special. It’s soft yet structured, easy to customise, and endlessly giftable.

You can make it for your journal, recipe book, or as a thoughtful handmade wrap for a friend’s favourite read. Add a border for a polished finish or a tie to keep it closed — the possibilities are endless.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

How long does it take to make?

Each project is designed to be finished in a weekend or less.

Coin purse: around 1 hour
iPad sleeve: 2–3 hours
Book cover: 3–4 hours

Even if you’re a slower crocheter, you’ll still be able to complete one of these projects easily over a relaxed weekend.

Is this beginner-friendly?

Absolutely! The Daisy Granny Square Book Cover Pattern was made for beginners.
If you know how to make a basic granny square (or want to learn), you’ll be able to follow along confidently.
The pattern includes:

Step-by-step written instructions
Clear process photos
UK & US stitch conversions

And because it’s made in separate squares, you can work one at a time and see progress straight away.

What yarn should I use?

Cotton or cotton-blend yarns work best for these projects — they hold their shape, feel soft to the touch, and show the stitch detail beautifully.
If you’re making the iPad sleeve, choose a sturdy DK or light Aran weight yarn for extra protection.

Do I need to line it or can I leave it unlined?

You can do either!
The pattern includes tips for both versions.

For a quick finish: leave it unlined — it will still hold beautifully.
For a more polished look (especially for the iPad sleeve), add a simple fabric lining or use felt inside for padding.

Is this a good handmade gift idea?

Definitely.
Each project makes a thoughtful, reusable gift that looks store-bought but feels personal.
You can:

Wrap a notebook in the crochet cover
Pair the card purse with a gift card
Or make a full matching set in someone’s favourite colours
