Water Bottle Holder Crochet Pattern

Details

Do you feel like you need to keep yourself (or your kids) more hydrated this summer? Well, I've noticed that since I have my water bottle right by my side, I tend to drink more than when I have to fiddle for it at the bottom of my tote bag!

Water bottle holders (or carriers) are the perfect summer crochet project and they make great gifts too!

I chose to use 100% cotton yarn for this project to avoid too much stretch. I love the vibrant colors of Lilly's Sugar & Cream, but sometimes I just like sticking to white so it can match just about anything I'm wearing. You could choose whatever color you like, of course.

**Materials**
- 1 skein of 100% cotton Lilly's Sugar & Cream in white or color of choice.
- Crochet hook that fits your yarn. I used a US size 7, (4.5 mm) hook for this project.
- A tapestry needle
- A pair of scissors
- Water bottle (size of choice) - pattern is written for 750ml (25oz) bottle
Bottle height = 11.8" (30 cm)
Bottle base diameter = 3.1" (8 cm)

**Skill Level**
Advanced Beginner (If you are going to adjust sizing, then you need to have experience with size adjustment)

**Finished Size**
Diameter: 4.5" (11.5 cm)
Body length: 10” (25.5cm)
Strap length: 8.6" (22 cm)

Weight: 2.04 oz (58g)

Yardage: 97.5 yards (89.2m)

Remember that the size of your water bottle holder will stretch quite a bit with the weight of a full bottle of water. So keep the strap length on the shorter side to allow for stretching.

**Gauge**
12 sc and 12 rows with a 4.5 mm crochet hook

Bottom circle should be about 3 inches in diameter, or size needed to fit your water bottle.

You can adjust your gauge by using a smaller or larger hook, or you could use a different weight yarn.
