Felted Casserole Cozy
With the warmer weather comes those special events we all love: pot lucks, barbecues, family reunions, and sports outings. This project is exactly the thing needed to keep those tasty dishes insulated while transporting them to their destination. The thick felted wool creates the perfect barrier to help hot dishes remain hot and cold ones stay chilled in the sun’s warming rays.
Knitting Loom: KB Hat Loom set to large gauge (pegs in every other hole), 28 pegs used.
Yarn: Approximately 950 yards of worsted weight 100% wool yarn, two strands held as one. Sample used Patons Classic Wool Worsted (2 skeins in each of the colors Jade Heather and Rich Red, 1/2 skein in the color Leaf Green, 1/4 skein in the color Winter White) 210 yds/192 m.
Notions: knitting tool, 6mm crochet hook (for cast on and help with possible missed stitches, etc), stitch markers, scissors, knitting pins, yarn needle, row counter, one large and a few small decorative buttons, as desired. Also needed for felting process: hot water, either in washing machine or in large tub, 1 tablespoon laundry soap or baking soda, thick towels, old jeans or dryer balls to aid in the felting process if using a washing machine.
Gauge: Approx 9.33 sts x 17.75 rows= 4 inches (before felting)
Finished Measurements: Before felting: 17” x 12″ x 5″ After felting: approximately 15” x 9″ x 3″ (The size of this cover can be adjusted by changing the number of pegs used and rows knitted, as well as custom fitted by felting the item to fit the specific pan desired for use.)
