It is still pretty wintry here, and it seemed like a good time to try a different colour-way for my tweed effect hot water bottle cover.
Made in Scheepjeswol stonewashed XL in black onyx, smokey quartz and moonstone on a 6mm hook. One cover needs 1 ball of each colour. The stitch is my ‘three colour moss stitch’ but I have seen it called ‘linen stitch’ elsewhere. Pattern available on request.
Looks super cosy!

Looking forward to seeing it. Did it use lots of yarn?

So far it has used 1092 yards/999 meters. I need to put a fairly wide border on it since it ended up narrower than the requested size. Borders always use more yarn than I expect them to.
