Sometimes one just needs to curl up with a nice hot water bottle, either to warm up, or to soothe away some aches and pains.
Warm Waters Knitting Pattern will fit a standard hot water bottle and includes 2 designs.
One has gentle waves lapping across the front panel and the other one has swans bopping along on water.
I chose pastel colours, but you can make these in bright or deep solids for a bit of pop.
