The Wild Horses Laptop Sleeve is a bag for your laptop that protects it from scratches and bumps. The sleeve is worked in double knitting, which gives a good hold so you don't have to sew in lining. It is worked from the bottom up in double knitting with colourwork. First, the bottom is worked as a rectangle back and forth in double knitting with stripes, after which stitches are knitted up along the sides. From here, the sides of the sleeve are worked in the round. The sleeve is finished in with a flap at each end, and a placket closure along both long sides, in which the zipper is finally mounted.
