Oh, Canada....
Canada Day is still a while away, but I'm living for tapestry crochet designs! So here's a new can cozy (for taller cans). Perhaps you're Canadian, love Canada, or a huge fan of Maple Syrup? Either way, your drink will be cute and cozy!
Enjoy! :)
You will need:
A 4mm (G) crochet hook
Medium weight yarn in Red and White
A beer for when you're done! (or a non-alcoholic beverage, if you prefer!)
In order to make this cozy, you will need to know how to tapestry crochet in back loops only. There is a fantastic video tutorial via ChabePatterns explaining how to do both here:
This is the leaf pattern we will be using:
