The main part of this hot water bottle cover is worked in St st in the round using stranded colourwork. The k2, p2 cuff is pulled in with an i-cord tie threaded through the eyelets. Finally, a bead is sewn onto each alpaca for its eye. Strand yarn loosely across back of work keeping fabric elastic. Keep MC on top when changing colour.
