Fptr2tog: Yo twice, insert hk from front to back and around the post indicated, YO and pull up a lp (4 lps on hk) (YO and pull through 2 lps) 2 times (2 lps left. First half of fptr2tog is complete), YO twice, insert hk from front to back and around post indicated, YO and pull up a lp (5 lps on hk), (YO and pull through 2 lps) 2 times. (3 lps left) YO and pull through all three lps. Second half complete.

Always skip the stitch behind the fptr2tog. When starting a new round with a fptr2tog, work the fptr2tog then sc into the next st.

Here is a tutorial to help with rounds 8-12.

For a larger wine bottle increase the bottom to any circumference making sure to end with a multiple of 4.
