The Nordland Water Bottle Cover pattern features both large and small sizes, with the medium size perfectly fitting a 32 oz (946 ml) Hydro Flask. However, it’s versatile enough to suit other water bottles, thermoses, or any bottle that could use a little extra coziness and style.
The idea of this pattern came to me on a windy beach on a tiny island in the northern Norway - Værøy. As I sat there, sipping from my bottle, the cold metal reminded me of how nice it would be to have a warm, woollen cover to keep both my fingers and the bottle cozy. And so, the idea for this pattern was born.
I hope the texture of this cover brings warmth and comfort to your fingers. Enjoy knitting and staying warm! :heart:
