Easy Crochet Can Cozy Pattern
There’s nothing better than sitting and watching the sunset by the beach while having a delicious cold beer or cider – especially when your crochet cozy is keeping your hands from getting cold and wet.
It’s become a weekend tradition around here and every Friday and Saturday, we’ll find our group of friends slowly sauntering down to the beach after dinner. We all bring our lawn chairs and cheers our drinks as we watch the sun slowly sink down behind the trees on the opposite side of the lake.
Ahhh, lake life is the best life.
Now if you’re going to have a few beverages, why not have crochet cozy’s around the cans to prevent your hands from getting chilly and damp. My first cozy pattern turned out so well, soon I was getting requests from all my friends to crochet can cozy’s for them too.
This is a really easy crochet project that you can complete in under an hour. You can keep it plain or spruce it up with different colors and stripes if you’d like. You have the power to customize this simple crochet pattern as you see fit.
Easy Crochet Can Cozy Pattern
NOTES: Pattern in U.S. crochet terminology

Round 1: Ch3, 11dc into the circle, join with a sl st.
Round 2: Ch3, 2dc into each st, join with a sl st.
Round 3: Ch1, *1sc in the next 3 st, 2sc in the next st*, repeat around the circle, join with a sl st.
Round 4: Ch1, 1sc in each st around, join with a sl st (use a stitch marker to keep track of your rounds).
Round 5 – 16: Repeat row 4 changing colors to make whatever design you prefer. Bind off and weave in ends.
Have fun with colors and creating stripes – change colors as you see fit. You can add stripes with a row of slip stitches once all the rows are complete (as I did in the blue and turquoise cozy).

Beth
November 1, 2019 at 6:42 AM (7 months ago)ch3 means chain 3
11 dc means 11 double crochet
sl st is slip stitch
I hope this helps. I have crocheted since I was 9 years old and I am not 54. You can always google crochet abbreviations to see what they mean. Most of the time they are universal. Happy crocheting!
