Why you need a hot water bottle & How to knit a cover | Tutorial

In this video, I am sharing 7 reasons why you need a hot water bottle. I am including a tutorial how you can knit a hot bottle cover in one weekend. How to make a SWATCH: I typically cast on anywhere for 20 - 30 stitches and knit about 20 rows in my preferred pattern. From there, I can count how many stitches in 2 inches, measure the circumference of my hot water bottle in inches and get the number of stitches I need. I got 9 stitches in 2 inches. My water bottle's circumference is 15,5 inches. I divided 15,5 by 2 = 7.75. Then I multiplied 7.75 by 9 = 69.75. I like even numbers of stitches so I went with 70 but I could have cast on 68 as well.
