This is a pattern to crochet your own filet heart jar cosy / cozy to cover glass jars. Use this pattern to transform ordinary glass jars into a holder to keep pencils/brushes or nick-nacks in. Alternatively it could be a vase for flowers or put tealights in it to cast a warm candle glow on your table or mantlepiece.

You will need:
• Clean and empty glass jar
• 1 x 25g (140m) ball of Scheepjes Sweet Treat, Rico Essentials Crochet or any equivalent 2ply mercerised cotton thread. Each jar uses approximately 10g-20g depending on the size of your jar.
• 1.75mm (size O) crochet hook (or whatever size you need to achieve correct gauge)
• Darning needle and scissors
• Assorted ribbons, beads, charms etc to adorn the jar cosy (optional)

You will need advance knowledge of basic crochet stitches and eTr-extended treble(UK)/eDc-extended double(US) stitch. Full written instructions are given for working the extended stitches but if you have never worked them before, you may want to familiarise yourself by watching some You Tube videos.

I am classing this as an intermediate pattern as the stitches are combined in ways that may not be familiar. However, I do not wish to discourage beginners with some experience. I am happy to provide e-mail pattern support for any ambitious beginners needing assistance. Please note: I do not make videos for my patterns.

Every row is written out using standard crochet notation and is available in US and UK terms.

Three charts are provided for chart readers.
