One day my friend asked me, if I have an idea how best to attach his water bottle to his bicycle. I promised him to make him a bottle holder and that’s it: It consists of a cardboard cylinder with bottom and a wrap crocheted from simple package string. I made two cords from the same package string to tie it somewhere to the bicycle.<\/p>\n

And that’s how to do it:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Cut a rectangle from cardboard.
    \nOne side must be long enough to go around the bottle plus allowance, the other must be high enough, so that it holds the bottle safely.<\/li>\n
  2. If you want the cardboard container to be (quite) waterproof, tape the inside with tape.
    \nNote:<\/em> I used clear package tape.<\/li>\n
  3. Wrap the cardboard around the bottle and wrap with long strips of tape.
    \nHint:<\/em> If it has to be waterproof, tape the whole cylinder.
    \nHint:<\/em> To make sure, that the cardboard container is not to tight around the bottle, I wrapped the bottle in several layers of old newspapers and wrapped the cardboard around the ‘thickened’ bottle.<\/li>\n
  4. Cut a circle from cardboard, optionally tape the to-be inside with tape, too.<\/li>\n
  5. Attach the circle with amply applied package tape to the bottom of your cardboard cylinder.<\/li>\n
  6. Then you can create the outer container.
    \nNote:<\/em> I crocheted it from package string by first     crocheting a circle<\/a> and then simply working straight up. ‘On the way’ I worked some thread eyes for the cords<\/a>. The cords themselves were made from the same material.
    \nHint:<\/em> It should be easy enough to sew the outer container from a fabric matching your bicycle colours.<\/li>\n

    The inner cardboard container and the outer crocheted container.
