"Hi! I'm Robin with Trees-mom.com and we're making a video for Expert Village today. We are making a cell phone holder, or a glasses holder. Some kind of cute little holder out of crocheted wire. We've gotten 3 of our rows done. We're at the end of the third row. Again, we're pulling up all of the wires to the top of the row so that we can go back and do our fourth row. We're going to do 5 or 6 rows on this. It depends on how tall you want it. If you're going to do a glasses holder, it needs to be tall enough to hold your glasses, so you might want to do 10 rows. For just a cell phone holder, 6 usually seems to be good enough. If you get to the point where you're not sure that it's going to be big enough, you can always add another row to the top. The way that you do that is make sure you have your single crochet at the end, and just keep going across like we've done before. Then when you get to the end of the row, you flip it over and start another row with your single crochet. Always making sure that the hook is pointing toward you and that you're grabbing the wire and pulling it through the stitches."
