Here’s a pin for your Pinterest board 🙂

Gauge isn’t super important with this piece, since you can measure as you go.

Materials needed:


Terms and Abbreviations used:

Pattern is written in US terms

Ch: Chain

Crab Stitch: work sc in stitch to the right instead of the left (this creates a rope looking effect)

Hdc: Half Double Crochet

Sc: Single Crochet

Sc2tog: Single Crochet 2 Together

Sp (s): Space (s)

St (s): Stitch (es)

 

Notes:

  • Always end with sc when making cozy
  • Ch 2 at beg counts as (sc, ch 1)
  • You can also make this as a bookmark by stopping at Cozy row 3 when you get to the length that you like, then work Row 9 for the border.
  • Width can easily be adjusted by adding in increments of 2 (just make sure that your starting ch is an odd number)
