Eyelet Wine Bottle Cozy

Today is the first day for the 12 Days of Christmas Wine Bottle Cozies! I’m so excited to present you with the first pattern, and can’t wait to share the rest of them with you. If all goes well, I will have them out by the 24th. Most of the patterns have been designed already, so that now I can focus on bringing them to you.

The great thing about these cozies is that they can be re-used over and over again each year. And if you use other yarn, besides Christmas colors, you could use them for any occasion throughout the year.

This cozy was designed to fit a 3″ bottle, but you can increase the size to fit any diameter.

Skill Level: Easy

Materials:
Yarn: Red Heart Super Saver, or any worsted weight yarn.
Crochet Hook: H/8-5.00mm

Gauge: 3″ across first 3 rounds.

Finished Size: Fits a wine bottle that is just under 3″ in diameter.

Abbreviations:

Bl/bls = Back Loop/Back Loops
Ch/Chs = Chain/Chains
FO = Fasten Off
Hdc = Half Double Crochet
Rep = Repeat
Sc = Single Crochet
Sk = Skip
Sl St = Slip Stitch
St/Sts = Stitch/Stitches

Note:

To increase the size for a bigger bottle, simple increase the diameter to desired circumference making sure to end with a multiple of 2.
