About the Remote Caddy/Koosi
This clever knitted organizer is designed to fit over the arm of a typical recliner. The pocket section provides convenient storage for remote controls, while the opposite end helps keep the caddy positioned over the chair arm.
The original design has three pockets, but the straightforward rectangular construction also makes the project easy to adapt to your own needs.
Three Handy Remote-Control Pockets
The pocket section is approximately 10.5 inches wide overall. The three individual pockets are approximately 3.75 inches, 3 inches and 3.75 inches wide.
The pockets are approximately 7 inches long, providing space for remote controls or other similarly sized items.
The distance between the top of the remote-control pockets and the counterweight sleeve is approximately 12 inches.
Yarn and Needles
The pattern calls for bulky-weight yarn and US 9 (5.5 mm) knitting needles. The designer used approximately 5.6 ounces of yarn for the original project.
This can also be a useful stash-busting project. The designer used leftover yarns to create stripes, while a solid color or another combination of colors can work equally well.
Gauge
The stated gauge is 16 stitches = 4 inches (10 cm) in stockinette stitch.
Because the dimensions are designed to be adjustable, you can also compare the developing caddy directly with the chair or recliner where you intend to use it.
Construction
Remote Caddy/Koosi is a one-piece rectangular project worked flat. The pattern uses written instructions rather than a chart.
This simple construction makes the caddy a useful canvas for color changes and textured stitches. It can be knitted in stripes like the photographed project or worked in a single color for a simpler look.
Customize the Caddy for Your Chair
One of the useful features of this pattern is that the dimensions can be altered. Before starting, measure the arm of the chair or recliner where you plan to use the finished organizer.
You can then consider the required width, the length of the hanging sections and the size of the objects you want to keep in the pockets.
