Growing up, I loved carrying a book with me wherever I went, and that habit followed me well into adulthood. I wanted a way to transport my books and notebooks in a more organized, protected manner, which led me to make a few book sleeves. Made from two layers of cotton, each sleeve closes with braided elastic and a button to keep larger books secure, and includes a small front pocket for pens. A simple project with a wonderfully functional purpose, it quickly became the perfect solution.
