Drunk Christmas tree - decoration on a bottle of champagne
Hello! My name is Anna, I am 35 years old, I am the head of local media. For the first time I picked up the hook this summer and made sure that knitting is a great business activity: you can calm down, think about the problems that arise at work, and please yourself and your relatives with an unusual thing. Now I knit constantly, but I prefer simple things to do: I like to "see the result" right away. On the nomination "White Rabbit 2011" (author's work) I present the decoration for a bottle of champagne "Drunk Christmas tree". DRIED YELLOW. In the New Year holidays the most affordable gift is a bottle of champagne. I decided to decorate it beautifully. Threads from the market, the cheapest, for 1 skein (grams of 50, probably) light green, dark green and light green, hook number 6. With green threads, I tied a bottle, beginning with a cork, round in circles with no crochet "vnatyazhku" (I had to constantly "measure" on a bottle) to the label. At the level of the "shoulders" of the bottle and 10 rows lower in one row, knit in a loop, the one nearest to the center, the rest of the fabric - for both loops. The first "skirt" (at the shoulder level) knitted like this:
The second "skirt" (10 columns lower, where an external loop was left for it) with two rows of "branches":
The final touch is red bows, 4 for eacheach row of "twigs" = 12 pieces. It took me 2 meters of tape. Well. Now the bottle is not a shame to give :-). Other works sent to can be viewed by.
