This cute bear will protect your hands from cold or hot beverages!
Mason jars are great drink containers but sometimes those drinks can be too hot (or cold). A crochet mason jar cosy will not only make you smile while you enjoy your tea or hot cocoa but it will also prevent you from burning your hands.

Step 1
This pattern is for a 500ml mason jar but you can adjust the size by increasing/decreasing the base circle stitches. Pattern is worked in the round in both loops (or v’s) with the exception of Round 7.

Stitches Used:

ch – chain

sc – single crochet

dc – double crochet

inc – increase (2sc in same st)

BLO – back loop only

sl st – slip stitch

Materials:

-Worsted weight yarn in colour of choice

-Crochet hook size 4.00mm

-7mm safety eyes (I purchased mine from 6060 on Etsy)

-Scrap piece of felt in colour of choice.

-Embroidery thread and needle.

Round 1: start 6 sc in ring.

Round 2: inc in each st (12 sts)

Round 3: [inc, sc] repeat 6 times (18 sts)

Round 4: [inc, sc 2] repeat 6 times (24 sts)

Round 5: [inc, sc 3] repeat 6 times (30 sts)

Round 6: [inc, sc 4] repeat 6 times (36 sts)
Step 2
Round 7: sc in BLO
Step 3
Stitching in the back loop will create the edge/walls of the cosy.

Rounds 8-22: sc in each st, both loops.

Round 23: sc 13, in next st (sc, 3 dc, sc), sl st in next 7 sts, in next st (sc, 3 dc, sc), leave remaining sts as is. Fasten off and weave ends.
Step 4
For the mouth and nose I cut a small square piece of felt and embroidered it before cutting it into a round shape.
Step 5
Luckily I had thread that matched the felt colour and using a safety pin to hold the felt in place I stitched it on to the cosy.
