It's like the 1970's Home Ec around these parts!

Okay, I know this is going to sound like the dorkiest project ever, but anyone ever knitted a Stand Mixer Cozy? I need something to cover my pride and joy (a bright, candy apple red KitchenAid stand mixer) because it sits next to the stove and I'm going to admit, I'm lazy enough that I don't want to wipe it down every time I cook something. Lazy. Lazy. Or really smart? You decide.

Any suggestions are welcome!

No, that makes total sense - my mother-in-law's mixer has a big plastic cover that keeps it clean while it sits on the shelf.

All you would really need to do is measure it, work out the right height and width needed, and then either do the two-pieces sewn together or the like-a-hat-but-not with a circular.

I'd say you could take a teapot cosy pattern and make it larger/longer as needed, and just making sure the spout bit is sewn up.
