Keep your olive oil from running down the sides of the bottle and making an oily mess on your countertop and hands. This drip catcher is like a short sock with the ribbed cuff folded down to add an extra layer of absorbency. The decorative ruffle edge also helps keep the bottle cleaner.
Finished size: about 1 ¼ inches tall (folded) and 4 inches in circumference.
Materials: Yarn: Fingering weight, superwash. Shown here: Knit Picks Stroll in Peapod (75% superwash wool, 25% nylon; 231 yards): about 14 yards.
Needles: US 2 (2.75 mm) set of 4-5 double point (dpn)
Notions: Stitch marker, tapestry needle.

I see why this took you so long. The logistics of putting this up must have been difficult. Very nice, and that’s a cute idea – something I could do probably, but then who knows with me. And you are right. The olive oil I buy at Costco is in a dripless bottle that drips all over the place.
