Crochet Christmas Bottle Cover

DIY Christmas gifts can be hard to think up. The Crochet Christmas Bottle Cover is perfect for times when you don't want to spend a lot of money on something so simple, but want a meaningful gift still. This would be great to give to the host of a party as a thank you, or even as a makeshift stocking to give something smaller inside of it. Either way, it can later be used as a wine bottle cover to give the gift that keeps on giving! All you need besides the yarn and your hooks is a little bit of ribbon to tie on the finishing touch.

This looks like an interesting project. Ive never used pompon yarn before, so I may pick some up after Christmas and give this a try. I can also see it working with bulky yarn, too. Im always up for trying new yarns, new stitches and generally expanding my skill set. Thats one thing I love about needle artsthere are so many new things to try.
