Happy Holidays Wine Bottle Carrier ~ FREE Crochet Pattern

Happy Holidays Wine Bottle Cozy ~ FREE Crochet Pattern

I’m a little late at publishing this, but I figure it’s better late than never. The cozy is crocheted in Christmas colors, but feel free to use any colors that you like. You can also increase the size of the cozy by increasing the bottom diameter to any multiple of 4.

Here is the Happy Holidays Gift Bag to match.
