Pretty Simple Santa Wine Bottle Cozy

Free Wine Bottle Cozy Crochet Pattern.

This is my version of the Pretty Simple Santa Wine Bottle cozy. It works up quick and easy and fits a wine bottle that’s 3″ in diameter. With that said, you could easily adjust this to fit any size bottle that you want.

And you have the option to embroider a cute belt buckle to the belt if you like. As you can see, my embroidery is far from perfect, but it’s still cute.

And the necktie, you can position it straight like a tie, or cross it for a cute bow. Either way it’s cute.

Now all we need is Mrs. Clause, but that will be for next Christmas… hopefully. :)

Pattern Instructions:

With Red Ch 2,

Rnd 1: Work 10 hdc in 2nd ch from hook; join with sl st in first hdc.

Rnd 2: Ch 1, work 2 hdc into same st as join and into each st around; join with sl st in first hdc. (20 sts)

Rnd 3: Ch 1, work 2 hdc into same st as join, hdc in next st, *2 hdc in next st, hdc in next st; rep from * around; join with sl st in first hdc. (30 sts)

Rnd 4: Ch 1, 2 hdc in same st as join (first V-st made), *sk next st, 2 hdc in next st; rep from * around; join with sl st in first hdc; (30 hdc, OR 15 V-sts)

Rnd 5: Ch 1, 2 hdc in sp of first V-st, 2 hdc into next V-st and into each V-st around; join with sl st in first hdc. (30 hdc, OR 15 V-sts)

Rnds 6-15: Rep Rnd 5. Join Black to joining sl st of rnd 15.

Rnd 16: With Black, rep rnd 5. Change to Red when you make the joining sl st. FO black.

Rnds 17-25: With Red, rep rnd 5 for a total of 25 rnds. Join black to joining sl st of rnd 25. FO Red.

Begin Working in Rows for the Collar.

Row 1: With Black, ch 2 (counts as first hdc, now and throughout), 2 hdc in sp of first V-st and into each V-st around; hdc in last hdc. Do NOT Join. TURN. (32 hdc, OR 2 hdc and 15 V-sts)

Row 2: Ch 2, 2 hdc in sp of first V-st and into each V-st across; hdc in last hdc (top of ch-2). (32 hdc OR 2 hdc and 15 V-sts) Turn.

Rows 3-5: Rep row 2. FO.

Necktie:

With Black, Loosely Ch 50, working into back bumps, sc in 2nd ch from hook and in each ch across. FO.

Position the necktie around last rnd made with the red and secure with a needle and yarn (See image below). I secured mine at the back with one knot and one at the front where tie crosses. Leave it like a bow-shape, or straighten the tie like a normal tie. Then fold the collar over the tie.

With yellow, embroider a small belt buckle on the black as shown.

Hat:

Notes for Hat:

Hat is worked in back loops only (blo).

It is worked in a continuous rnd without any joins. Thus you’ll need to place a stitch marker into the last (or first) st of each rnd to help you keep track.

With Red, Ch 2,

Rnd 1: 3 sc in 2nd ch from hook. Place marker in last st made and carry it up at each rnd.

Rnd 2: Working in blo: 2 sc in next 3 sts (6 sts)

Rnd 3: *2 sc in next st, sc in next st; rep from * around. (9 sts)

Rnd 4: 1 sc in each st around. (9 sts)

Rnd 5: *2 sc in next st, sc in next 2 sts: rep from * around (12 sts)

Rnd 6: Same as rnd 4. (12 sts)

Rnd 7: *2 sc in next st, sc in next 3 sts: rep from * around (15 sts)

Rnds 8-15: Rep rnd 4 until about 3/4 inch form desired length. After Rnd 15, sl st into next st and FO Red.

Rnd: 16: Join White in blo of next st with a stsc. Continuing in blo, sc around.

Rnds 17-18: With White, rep rnd 4 for 2 rnds. (15 sts) FO.

With both Red and White, wrap yarn around two fingers and make a small pom pom. Trim to desired size and attach to point of hat.
