Heres a freebie for yall!!

I started making these years ago because I was sick of the water puddles everywhere and well, you cant knit after taking a drink of a can of Dr. Pepper in the summer till you dry your hands…that wasnt gonna work. Or grab a cold can or bottle in the winter when your already freezing!! So I made these. They are handier than a pocket on a shirt!! I always have one in my purse and a felted one on the everpresent can of Dr. Pepper at home.
I usually stick one of these in all the adult stockings and get requests for them throughout the year…
They take about 3-4 hours away from your life and about 40-50 yards (your milage may vary) of yarn away from your stash.

These might even be a good non-scary “introduction” piece to sock knitting…or felting.

Heres the skills used:
Old Norwegian Cast-On
knit & purl
k2tog
kitchener

I wrote the directions for this at the forceful request of my friend. Who said “These are cool!! Everybody will want one! You should write the pattern and put it on your Ravlery!!”

So, Im sure there are thousands of these out there, but heres my version. Your welcome Kathy.
