Do Your Own Wednesday- Keep That Can Cool


Since this Saturday is going to be the first day I thought I would show yall my take on making a soda can cozy.

Yarn:

Carron Simply Soft  medium weight

Hook:

H (5mm)

Abbreviations:

Ch- Chain
DC- Double Crochet 
SC- Single Crochet 
SLST- Slip Stitch


I use the pattern from Love Me Do Crochet Shop Blog as the basis of my pattern. Row 1-4 belongs to their blog and is NOT mine. I know that their pattern is for a coffee cup cozy but it basically works for my pattern as well

Bottom of the cozy.
Row 1- Ch 4, and SlSt into beginning chain to create a loop. Ch 2, (counts as a DC), and then make 11 DC in the loop, join to the top of the CH 2. (12 DC total)
Row 2- Ch 2, make a DC in same stitch as the CH 2 just made, then make 2 DC in each stitch around, join to top of chain 2.
Row 3- Ch 2, make a DC in the same stitch as the CH 2 just made, then (1 DC in the next chain, 2 DC in the next), repeat the parenthesis all the way around, join.
Row 4- Ch 1, make 1 SC in front loops only in each stitch all the way around, join.
Row 5- ch 2, DC all the way around; join (repeat till desired height)
Once you reach the height you want: CH 1, SC all around; join and fasten off. Weave in ends

Now that yall know how to make your own soda can cozy, go make one for your friends and family. 

xoxo
Rita!
