You will need:
A Mason Jar (for this pattern, I will provide dimensions for 8oz, 12oz, Quart)
4mm crochet hook
Worsted weight yarn (4) in the colour of your choice)
Buttons (optional for the jars, but if you have one with a handle then a button is HIGHLY recommended)
Needle to sew on the buttons
NOTE: This pattern will be done in continuous rounds. I.E, we won’t be joining at the end of each round, rather, we will be moving onto the next one by continuing to crochet into the first stitch of the previous round.
Let's get crocheting!

From here, we will be crocheting back and forth to create the gap for the handle. YOU WILL NEED A STITCH MARKER TO BEGIN AS WE WILL NO LONGER BE CROCHETING IN ROUNDS.
Chain 1, TURN YOUR WORK, (Place stitch marker here) and sc in the same stitch and continue going around the cozy, and stop two or more stitches before you reach the stitch marker. This is where we will start the space for the handle. You will need your jar/mug with you to check when you need to stop. Place your cozy on the jar/mug to make sure the space is wide enough for the handle. For my jar, the space was only two stitches wide. It may be different for yours, so be sure to check before you continue. Once you have reached that point and are happy with it, chain 1, TURN YOUR WORK, and sc in each stitch in the other direction, all the way to the end of the row.
From here we will be going back and forth - chain 1, turn your work, sc in the same stitch and each stitch to the end of the row, chain 1, turn your work, sc in the same stitch and each stitch back in the OTHER direction to the end of the row, chain 1, turn, and so on and so forth...
Continue working up and keep checking with your jar until you have reached a suitable height. Once you are happy with it, we can make the loop for the button.
When you have reached the end of the row, simply chain a length that will fit around your button (I made a chain of 12), then slipstitch the chain back into the last single crochet at the end of the row. Fasten off, weave in ends. Then on the other side, sew your button on using your yarn needle.
