Eve the Ovum

I’ve been helping my daughter launch her own lotion line. So far we have come up with Body Butter and Night Eye Cream. We will be trying Lotion Bars and Lip Balm next as soon as the supplies get here. We did accomplish some fun soaps and air plant cork planters.

Note: Entire project is worked in the round. Use a stitch marker or a scrap piece of yarn to mark the beginning of each row. Then you don’t have to count every row. Do not join unless instructed to.

Parentheses indicate a repeat. Repeat the stitches in the parentheses for the number of times indicated.

The bracketed number [] is the number of stitches at the end of each row.

I spread my increases out so there isn’t a seam on the finished piece. If you do not like this method, you can do regular increases.

If you have any questions, please feel free to email me at drunkenauntwendy@gmail.com.
