The Yarn

In an effort to use up some of our stash, I grabbed the remnants of the yarn I used for the Incredible Face Scrubbie and Jovial Washcloth.

The yarn I used was I Love This Cotton! from Hobby Lobby. You can use any worsted weight cotton that you have. Paintbox Cotton Aran will be wonderful to use for the Face Scrubbie Basket. You’ll just want to check your gauge.

Water Bottle Cozy – Free Crochet Pattern

One thing that I’m going to make a more conscious effort in doing this year is to drink more water. I’ve purchased a few more reusable water bottles over the last few months so I always have one clean.

I know that it’s an U.S. thing with having ICE COLD water. There isn’t anything better than drinking water so cold that your teeth hurt. I also don’t get mad when drinking and I get to eat a piece of that good nugget ice. IYKYK – if you know, you know.

Supplies

The Yarn

I wanted to use cotton yarn so that it can absorb any condensation caused by the ice cold water in the bottles and not make a mess on your tables or desk. I had some Paintbox Cotton DK left in my stash from a previous project.

Using DK weight helped with not adding bulk to the bottom of the bottles that will make it less sturdy. No one likes a cup or bottle that will tip over because the base is uneven.
