Sri siddi vinayaka temple is at Rejinthal, Zaheerabad, Medak district, Telengana. It  is nearer to Hyderabad and is at a distance of 108 kilometers.  Zaheerabad was previously called Pedda Ekkheli. It was later named as Zaheerabad by the name of  the paigah nawab,  Zaheerabad Yar Jung. The idol in the temple is Vinayaka (Lord Ganesha) called as Siddhi Vinayaka. The temple though looks like recently built it has a history of 207 years. The H.H. Shiva Ram Bath  Jyoshi of Maharashtra prayed Lord Ganesh  in this place while he was on the way to Tirupathi. Pleased with his prayers Lord Ganesha came out of the earth in that place as Siddi Vinayaka. The name siddhi indicates success. People who visit this temple are granted success. The idol in this temple is a svayambhu (came itself from earth). The idol is beautiful which is of rock and decorated with sandalwood paste.  Lord  Siddhi Vinayaka faces south side and this is the only temple of lord Ganesha facing south

Crochet bottle cover is prepared with basic single crochet in just 30 minutes. It is easy to crochet than sew the bottle cover.

I have done 15 rounds as it is for a small bottle. Finish it o
