Darth Maul Freezer Pop Holder

Darth Maul Freezer Pop Holder

My husband thought he would be funny and ask for a Darth Maul lightsaber pop holder. He should learn not to request things like that from me!

Go up to the middle black line and duplicate stitch across to close it into two halves. This is so you can stuff one half and leave the other half open for the pop. This would be a good time to emborider the "buttons" on it. I choose to do 4 "buttons" in red.

 

Change to red

knit 20 rows 

(k2tog, k5, k2tog) x 2

(k2tog, k3, k2tog) x2

Before closing stuff the saber.

A friend of mine asked me if I could make her children freezer pop holders. She showed me a pattern and I didn't look past the picture and said OK... It was a crochet pattern and no matter how I try I can not learn crochet.. So, I made up a pattern. Hope it might be something that others can use as well :)
