Dracula Wine Bottle Cape | Free Crochet Pattern

Last year, the idea came up for adding decorations to the wine bottles, and I started making wine bottle covers/wraps to dress them up a bit. So this year, I made a black and red Crochet Dracula Wine Bottle Cape. I added it to a dark bottle of Seven Deadly Zins, and it really adds a great pop of color and personality it my bar decor.

Bar decorations are always part of Halloween around here. We have a small bar in the corner of our living room that is always a focal point for guests, so I try to fill it with whimsy over the holidays. It’s fun to direct people to my favorite wine by adding, “It’s the one in the tuxedo,” or “Try the ghost! It’s delicious!”

Supplies

Red Heart Super Saver yarn, 100% acrylic worsted weight, in Cherry Red and Black.

Furls Odyssey G (4.00 mm) hook
