MATERIALS:Main color: 1 ball Rowan Classic Yarns Soft Lux in color #002 Powder
Main color: 1 ball Lana Gato Baby Soft in color #4670
Bobble color: 1 ball Sirdar Tango in color #150 (*I used Tango, but it may be discontinued. Any ol' DK from your stash will work)
24" length of ribbon
1 set 10.5 US double pointed needles
There will be enough yarn for 1 bottle cozy and at least 2 stem warmers
SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS:MB will be used as the abbreviation for Make Bobble. When you see MB in the pattern, do this:
Change to your Bobble yarn (hold 2 strands together), knit into the next stitch 3 times (front, back, front), turn, purl 3, turn, knit 3, turn, slip 1, k2tog, psso, turn, change back to main color and knit the 1 bobble stitch you have remaining. Then continue in pattern.

The yo's will have created holes at the top for your ribbon to weave through. There should be a hole in the purled part of every rib except one; this is where your bow should sit.
BOTTOM:Pick up 27 sts along the bottom
*k2tog, k1, repeat from * until 8 sts remain Cut off yarn, leaving a long tail
Using a needle, run yarn tail through remaining 8 sts and gather tightly
There are lots of other great color schemes you could make this with. I chose my yarn & ribbon color to match the white foil on the wine bottle. I also doubled up on the ribbon to make the bow more full:
STEM WARMER:Knit flat, bobbles act as buttons
