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!

If it is right by the stove, and you think fire resistant, easily launderable material is a good idea, you could just buy a fire-resistant t-shirt and cut it up to make your own. (If you are in the UK, there's one here for about £20: http://www.ace-safetywear.co.uk/store/click-fire-retardant-protex-t-shirt-s-s-navy.html)

I presume fire-resistant knitting yarn must exist, somewhere, but I've never seen it.
