Whether you’re new to reading romances, tired of carrying the cheesy covers, embarrassed by the newer ones that look like the couple is doing it, or just want something to protect the book, I’ve got the solution for you!
What you want and need is a book cover. Book covers come in all shapes and sizes and in all different materials. You can make your own or buy one or both. Book covers make great gifts also. Below are three versions of book covers you can DIY.
Vinyl Book Covers:
You would make this type of book cover because vinyl is durable and protective. It’s sturdy too, which makes it all the better for every day use. Toss it in your bag without fear of damaging pages – no more unwanted dog ears for you!
Crochet Book Covers:
Do you love texture and subtle pretty covers? Me too! Crochet book covers are easy to make, you don’t really need a pattern as it’s basically just rows of single stitches until you can cover the book. On the other hand if making a book cover is your first project for crocheting then yes, you should observe one.
Fabric Book Covers:
Best feature about fabric book covers? Washable! Go to the fabric section of a store and select something that speaks to you. Grab some lace and little patches too to match and take them home. Measure your book (mass, trade, hardback), cut your fabric, fold the flaps in and sew. Presto, instant cover! Decorate as you see fit.

I like the fabric covers, they remind me of all the times I’d watch my grandmother choosing fabric for her patterns.
My preference is the crochet (as pictured above). They’re pretty, textural, and not likely to crinkle edges of books because as you make them and use them they get a little loose.
