Steps
Check your earbuds case against your yarn and hook. Pick a hook that gives a firm fabric, since a loose stitch lets the case slip out.
Make a magic ring or chain 4 and join into a ring. Work your first round of double crochet groups into it to start the square.
Work 3 or 4 rounds of granny square groups, adding chain spaces at each corner. Stop when the square is slightly larger than the face of your case.
Change colors at the start of a round by joining the new yarn in a corner space. Crochet over the old tail as you go so there is less to weave in.
Make a second square the same size for the back piece. Count your rounds so both pieces match.
Place the two squares together with right sides facing out. Join them along three sides with single crochet or slip stitch, leaving the top open.
Slip your earbuds case inside and check the fit. If it is tight, add a round to both squares before joining further.
Make a short chain loop at the top of the back piece for the closure. Sew a button to the front piece so the loop holds it shut.
Weave in all yarn ends with the tapestry needle. Trim the tails close to the fabric.
Tips and common mistakes
Keep your tension even, because a loose granny square stretches and the case can fall out.
Try the pouch on your earbuds case before you finish the last join so you can still adjust the size.
Use a smaller hook for the joining round to make the edges firmer.
Cotton yarn holds its shape better than soft acrylic for small pouches.
Questions
How much yarn does one AirPods case need?
Very little. A few grams of leftover yarn in two colors is usually enough for both squares and the joining round.
Can I make this without a magic ring?
Yes. Chain 4 and join into a ring, then work your first round into that ring instead.
How do I make it fit a larger charging case?
Add one or two more rounds to each square and check the fit before joining the sides.
