Handmade water bottle or drinks carrier in a choice of 4 vibrant neon colours, perfect for hiking or festivals.
Choose from a wrist strap with clip or an extra long strap to wear across your body or over one shoulder - great for hands-free drinks carrying!
Hand-knitted in strong, brightly coloured cotton, your WombleKnits bottle sling will stretch enough to fit a wide variety of shapes and sizes of bottles and cups, up to a full wine bottle size (75cl / 25 fl oz), but folds up very small when not in use.
Possible uses:
* Water bottle holder
* Takeaway coffee carrier
* Beer bottle holder
* Wine bottle sling
* Gym bottle carrier
* Baby bottle holder
* Dog poo bag carrier
* Plastic bag caddy
* Plant pot sling
Where might it be useful?
* Hiking
* Days out
* Theme parks
* Camping
* Sports events
* Festivals
* School trips
* At the gym
The possibilities are endless! Buy one for each of the kids in different colours so they know whose water is whose (and can carry it themselves!) - great as a stocking filler or back to school gift.
Whatever you use it for, it'll last a long time. It's hand knitted from strong cotton and all in one piece, with no seams or weak points, making it incredibly strong and hard-wearing.
DIMENSIONS:
Width: 10cm / 4" stretching to 15cm / 6"
Height: 15cm / 6" stretching to 21cm / 8"
SHORT STRAP:
Strap width: 2.5cm / 1"
Strap length: 27cm / 10.5" stretching to 31cm / 12" (including clip)
The clip can clip onto any part of the sling, so you can have the strap over the top of the bottle, clipped onto the same side of the sling to make a loop or further down to make a handle, wound twice around a belt - whatever you need!
LONG STRAP:
Strap width: 3.5cm / 1.5"
Strap length: 107cm / 42" stretching to 137cm / 54"
(can easily be shortened by tying a knot in it, or ask me to knit you one with a custom length)
WASHING INSTRUCTIONS: Machine wash up to 40 C
ECO-CREDENTIALS: helps carry around reusable water bottles, coffee cups etc. and is made from pure cotton which will eventually biodegrade (but not until it's been used for many, many years!)
WHY DOES THE LONG STRAP VERSION COST SO MUCH? Because to hand knit a long strap that's wide enough not to cut into your shoulder, in a sturdy, non-stretchy stitch like this takes a lot of time (2 hours + 45 minutes for the holder). The wrist strap version has the same size holder, but is cheaper because its strap is much shorter and a bit narrower and thus much quicker to knit.
Please note that the apparent colour of the product may vary according to monitor differences.
