Row 3 to 8-Place 1 sc in each st across the row.
-At the end of your last row, sl in the marked st, B.O. and weave in ends.
-Repeat the pattern until you have 4 “legs” in total.
-When all the “legs” are completed, stuff them based on the weight of your phone (the heavier the phone, the more you should stuff the “legs”.

If you do not wish to sew on all the legs, you can use a fabric glue (Fabri-Tac for example) to glue the legs on.
