FREE Jar Cozy Pattern!

I made this mason jar cozy for a friend who likes to drink coffee out of a mason jar, BUT I think it looks SO SWEET as a candle holder!! I couldn't find a cozy pattern that really suited what I needed, so I wrote my own and you can have it FOR FREE!!! 





Materials Needed:
2 colors of medium size, worsted weight yarn (I used Red Heart Comfort and Red Heart Super Saver). You really could use any yarn for this - it doesn't take a lot so it's great for using up scraps!
Size H/5.00mm crochet hook
A mason jar

Using Color A:
R1: sc6 in a magic ring
R2: sc2 in each sc (12)
R3: *sc1, inc in next sc* repeat around
R4: *sc2, inc in next sc* repeat around
R5: *sc3, inc in next sc* repeat around
R6: sc1 in each sc around
Switch to color B (no need to cut colors when switching, we will just bring it up when needed)
R7-8: sc1 in each sc around
Switch to color B
R9-10: sc in each sc around

Alternate between two rows of color A and two rows of color B until sleeve is the desired size. Mine is a total of 18 rows of stripes.

R19: dc1 in each sc around to form a rim around the sleeve. Finish off and sew in ends.

This pattern was made to fit a mason jar that is roughly 3” in circumference. If you wanted to make this pattern to fit a different mason jar, simply keep going with the increase rounds (or do fewer increase rounds) until the flat bottom part of the sleeve is slightly larger than the bottom of your jar. You don’t want it to be too big, because ideally the sleeve should fit snuggly around the jar! :)


Enjoy!!
