99 Bottles by Isabel Batteria (isabatt) [Crochet]

Submitter's Comments:
When I saw this contest, I was elated. I was wondering if I would find a shirt design I would be able to make, and when I saw “99 Bottles” I thought I had hit the jackpot. I had been recycling bottles covering them with variegated yarn so they could be used as flowerpots. I had also crocheted over steel vegetable cans and turned them into stationary holders or planters.

At first I really wanted to crochet the 99 bottles. People looked at me like I was crazy whenever I told them my plans. Now I understand they weren’t wrong. Even though each bottle took me about an hour to complete, I could spare very little time. At the end I managed to leave it at 9, which is a symbolic number anyway.

I collected all kinds of bottles and took off the labels with water and a metal sponge—for beer bottles—and WD40—for Lipton’s Iced Tea bottles, the wider ones. I wanted to vary the patterns as much as colors.

My favorite is the wine bottle wrapped in pearly white. I like the red beer bottle because it looks like something that might be used to decorate a nice beach house, maybe because it resembles a fisherman’s net.

I loved doing this and I plan to make many more bottles. After the contest is over, I will sell them on Etsy (seller name isabatt) and donate the proceeds to Sierra Club or another environmental organization. They may be used to display beautiful flowers or small decorative bamboos. These are just suggestions!

I am very proud to submit this project and be able to keep these bottles from the landfill.
