Daisy Crochet Phone Case Pattern for iPhone
A fitted daisy crochet phone-case cover built on a thin clear plastic snap-on iPhone shell, with a soft lavender or sage back, a small daisy motif, exposed screen, and a camera opening sized to your own case.
What you'll make
Make a daisy crochet phone case for iPhone on a thin plastic snap-on shell, with a fitted cotton cover, floral appliqué, and camera opening sized to your case.
This is a size-to-shell pattern, not a model-specific iPhone pattern. Use a thin plastic snap-on shell made for your exact phone. The same method can be adapted for different iPhone sizes, including iPhone 17 and iPhone 18, by changing the starting chain, row count, edge shaping, and camera opening to match that shell.
This project makes a real daisy crochet phone case by fitting a crochet back-and-edge cover to a thin clear plastic snap-on iPhone shell. The shell controls the exact phone size and camera placement while the crochet layer adds the soft floral design.
A closer look
This project makes a real daisy crochet phone case by fitting a crochet back-and-edge cover to a thin clear plastic snap-on iPhone shell. The shell controls the exact phone size and camera placement while the crochet layer adds the soft floral design.
- Size from the plastic shell, not from a model name: use the exact shell for your phone and adjust the foundation, panel height, and camera opening until the crochet layer matches it.
- Choose cotton yarn for a sharper motif and a flatter finished cover.
- Block or steam small motifs lightly before sewing them onto the cover if they curl.
What you'll need
- Thin clear plastic snap-on shell made for your exact iPhone model
- Worsted-weight cotton yarn in dusty lavender or soft sage
- Accent yarn in cream petals and a muted buttery-yellow daisy center
- 4.0 mm crochet hook
- Yarn needle
- Fabric-safe craft glue or matching sewing thread for attaching the crochet cover to the shell
- Scissors
- Stitch markers (optional)
Follow the pattern from start to finish
Read the abbreviations first, check the notes, then work through the pattern in order.
This is a fitted crochet cover attached to a thin plastic snap-on shell, not a slip sleeve or pouch.
There is no fixed phone-size stitch count: measure against the shell for your exact iPhone model and adjust the foundation, rows, and camera opening as needed.
Test the shell on the phone before permanent attachment so the camera, buttons, ports, and screen remain fully usable.
From first stitches to finishing
Crochet the cover, add the daisy, then attach it to the clear shell.
Crochet a fitted back cover to match your plastic snap-on iPhone shell, shape the camera opening from that shell, make a small daisy appliqué, then attach the crochet layer while keeping the screen, buttons, ports, and lenses clear.
Measure the shell and chain
Use the plastic snap-on shell for your exact iPhone model, or a paper tracing of its back, as the template. Chain only until the foundation matches that shell width.
Crochet the base cover panel
Work even rows of single crochet until the base panel matches the shell height and the stitch texture looks smooth.
Shape the camera cutout
Mark the camera corner and shape a clean opening so the lenses remain unobstructed after attachment.
Test the cover on the shell
Lay the crochet panel over the clear shell and verify the fit, edge alignment, and camera opening placement.
Crochet the daisy motif
Make a small daisy appliqué with cream petals and a soft yellow center, keeping the shape compact and flat.
Attach the design to the cover
Sew the daisy neatly onto the back cover, keeping the petals flat and the center aligned.
Attach the crochet cover to the shell
Secure the finished crochet cover to the clear shell back while keeping the screen fully exposed and the camera cutout aligned.
Finish and test the phone case
Snap the shell onto the phone and confirm that the case fits well and that the screen, buttons, ports, and camera stay usable.
Small details that make the finish better
- Size from the plastic shell, not from a model name: use the exact shell for your phone and adjust the foundation, panel height, and camera opening until the crochet layer matches it.
- Choose cotton yarn for a sharper motif and a flatter finished cover.
- Block or steam small motifs lightly before sewing them onto the cover if they curl.
- A clear or translucent shell base helps the finished project read as a real phone case rather than a soft sleeve.
- Use the exact plastic snap-on shell for your phone as the sizing template; do not copy the pictured dimensions or camera opening by eye.
- Keep the screen, side buttons, speaker area, charging opening, and camera lenses accessible before attaching the crochet layer permanently.
- Check the camera opening against the real shell after every shaping change; standard, Pro, and Pro Max models can place and size the camera area differently.
- If you use adhesive, apply it sparingly to the shell back only so the crochet fabric stays flat and the phone remains easy to remove from the case.
Ways to adapt the project
Change the yarn color, finishing touches, or small embellishments while keeping the same core construction.
