Druid's Hearth Hot Water Bottle Cover

The Druid’s Hearth Hot Water Bottle Cover is a bottom-up cover for your hot water bottle knitted in seamlessly in the round. This was designed as a practical item for my own use inspired by a gorgeous yarn from a dear friend. This was written for a standard-sized hot water bottle, but I have made notes on creating your own from your own measurements with an example. Use the plain version as a base to get creative or make one entirely for your own! The pattern also includes a couple of doodle pages. **Recommended yarn:** DK-weight yarn, e.g., Woolly Mammoth Fibre Co.
