Please Note: the needle size shown (US 7 - 4.5mm) should be circular knitting needles. Two double points may be used if they are long enough to accommodate all the stitches needed. Straight needles will not work with this pattern.

Simple crochet skills are needed for bottom; SC and DC

The pattern looks best with tightly knit stitches.

This easy to memorize pattern is worked flat across circular needles and seamed at the end. It is the perfect little project to throw in your purse or knitting bag to knit on-the-go as a last minute gift.

Any worsted weight cotton may be used, or yarn of your choice to gauge (I chose cotton for it’s ability to absorb water and how easy it is to care for - just throw it in with a load of towels!)

Falling Ribbons Water Bottle Cozy pattern (my first published pattern) can be knit by a beginner knitter, or customized by a creative more experienced knitter. It is a simple yet beautiful original design that looks much more complicated than it really is.
