Crochet tablet/Ipad sling bag2

Another crochet Tablet/Ipad with sling done and dusted.

A massive thank you to everyone who downloaded my first crochet tablet/Ipad sling bag.

For this bag, I used shell stitch, love how it turned out, looks like a star stitch to me :)

This is for 7inch tablet/Ipad but you can make it bigger, by adding chain.

I did test it on two different devices, the light and a little bit heavy but all good. 

Can be use as purse or handbag as well.

For the shell pattern, 

which is the body of the bag

 Using 5mm hook,
