(Definition: Josy is an abbreviation of ‘jar cosy’ courtesy of my Mum. Just one of the crazy things that go through her mind!

This josy fit small Salsa dip jars.

I switched the colours around to make the second jar cosy so the colours alternated from the the first one and so the main colour would be white.

It only uses to colours in DK weight yarns (black and white) but I would recommend Paintbox Yarns Simply DK.

I made two for watercolour water (one for dark paint and one for light paint). They are very quick and simple to make. They are also easily adjusted to fit different size jars by changing the number of increases and decreases you work.

You could change the colours and/or the striping to create you own versions of this pattern, I would love to see them!
