Hello hello,
How are you my dear crochet friends? I hope you’re doing well and keeping busy with the beautiful projects on your hooks!
Welcome back to my blog, with a new FREE crochet pattern – a lovely water bottle holder!
I made these bags for my little Anna to bring her water bottle to school. If you’re looking for a crochet water bottle holder or something similar, here is one idea for you 😉
As always, at a small fee, you can also buy this pattern to receive a beautifully-formatted, and easy-to-read PDF file with photo references!
Thank you for supporting Khuc Cay designs.
Let’s make this super fun and easy project and share with me with hashtag #Khuccay #Lespetitesmainsdekhuccay, or add a Ravelry project.
I hope you will enjoy crocheting these bottle holders as much as I enjoyed creating it. And do not forget that you can always write me a message for any questions!
Happy crocheting ♥
