Crochet Lip Balm Holder

Ok well there are lots out there but this is the way I do it :D


Into a Magic Ring SC 6 times. (6 SC)
2 SC into each stitch. (12 SC)
SC in the BACK LOOPS ONLY for the next 12 SC. (12 SC)
Now SC in each of the stitches in one continuous round, don't join just
keep going until its high enough to be at the top of your Lip Balm. (still 12 SC)
Slipstitch and turn and SC 5 times. (5 SC)
Slipstitch and repeat until you have done 5-6 rows.
Now slipstich and DC then chain 6 then DC in last 2 stitches of the row.
Slipstitch and SC 8 times around the chain of 6 joining at the end with a Slipstitch.
Leave a tail long enough to weave though and sew on the button and fasten off.

Now you have a lip balm holder :)
