my first project - desk chair arm covers

i just learned how to crochet and made these lil guys because the plastic/vinyl/whatever stuff on them was cracking and falling off. they're held taut by a drawstring which i just noticed is perfectly hidden by the angle of this picture, but i just used some extra yarn and tied it like shoelaces.

really simple and easy as a first project! i'm not sure if it is visible in the picture but i made the blue one second and i think it came out much better.

i got the idea from this video and used it as a general reference.
