Crochet Remote Caddy

I'm a practical person and this remote mess was not working for me.  I had to find a way to get everything organized so I started looking online for a pattern to organize my remotes.  All of the patterns I found were too small or just didn't work for me.  I decided to create my own pattern so I grabbed my yarn, hook, paper and a pen and got started.

After a few days of crocheting and unraveling my work, writing and rewriting every stitch I made, this is what I came up with...

  This is my original pattern and I am so pleased to share it with you. =)  

All I ask is that you link to this page when you reference the pattern.
