Jar Cozy

I see these cute jar cozies all over the internet. I have always loved them but I usually don’t have spare jars around to use. Well I bought a jar of peaches at the store a couple weeks ago and when they were gone, I got excited! I finally had a jar to make a cozy.

Here is my lovely jar filled with all my crochet hooks. They’re staying all nice and cozy being surrounded by my two favorite colors

This unfortunately was my second attempt at making one. The first time I just used the wrong yarn and it ended up too big. This one turned out perfect!

I used Vanna’s Choice, which I always use for for little projects like this. All I did was chain 42 to fit the jar then did double crochets in each row. The top row I did tighter single crochets to bring it in a little. It really helped the cozy fit the jar better.

Now my little jar sits on our end table full of crochet hooks. I can walk up and grab whatever I need when I’m in the mood to crochet.

I plan on making another one when I empty our spaghetti jar in the pantry. The jar is a little taller so I can use it for my knitting needles!

I hope everyone had a fabulous weekend! We had fun picking apples, adding a new member (a fish) to our family, making tasty chicken chili and just enjoying the fabulous fall weather.

Oh and of course some football on Sunday. Here are my two Packer fans!

What did you do over the weekend? Did you get to enjoy any craft time?
