Free Pattern: French Press Cozy

Description for my French Press Cozy:

The French Press Cozy is created in as a flat rectangle using the double crochet stitch with some single crochet and chaining involved. It fastens, either with two buttons held together with chain loops, or with ties. I braided mine.

These French Press Cozies are  popular on my market stalls and also sell on my Etsy shop. They make fantastic gifts and make up so quickly.

The great thing about this design is that you can add brightly coloured and unusual buttons to make it totally unique.  You can use your creativity to decorate it too if you like.  You can see how I added heart appliques to my Mason Jar Cozies and my Mug Cozies.  So the sky is the limit if you want to personalize your cozy.

 

Design Inspiration for my French Press Cozy

The inspiration for my free French Press Cozy pattern came from the real life experience of a good friend of mine. She used a bodum or a French Press to make her coffee and was having issues keeping it warm. I had already created a pattern for my Cozy Chic Tea Cozy and tea cozies have been around forever. We realized we hadn’t ever seen cozies for a cafetiere or French Press before.  We got onto Etsy and sure enough there was such a thing.

I wanted to design something I could make quickly so I would be able to sell it at a reasonable price point that would be attractive to market goers. Also something that was stylish and simple. The buttons or ties would be the features that made each cozy unique and different.

I arrived at this design for my French Press Cozy after several trial and error attempts and I hope you find it easy to make and something that will be useful to you in your daily life and add to the warm, homey feel of your kitchen or dining space.  If you are someone who sells items online or at your own craft sales, I hope you find it is a good seller. I have had so many happy customers purchase this that I had to share the free pattern here.

 

All About the Yarn.

For this pattern I decided to use Red Heart Super Saver yarn as it comes in so many vibrant and fun colours and can fit into any home decor style. Red Heart Super Save yarn is so versatile and can be used in so many different types of projects. I use it for some of my Dreamer Beanies and also for my Black and White Striped Cushion pattern. It is also great for Cozies for your Tea Pots, Mason Jars or even your mugs.

For my French Press Cozy it meets two of my top needs. It is the right weight (4) and it comes in all the great Red Heart colours so it can be made to fit in with any colour scheme.

Colourways:

Red Heart Super Saver yarn comes in 149 different colourways. 149!!! It comes in solid, prints and multis, flecks and heathers, and striped colours. You don’t even have to worry about matching dye lots as the colours never deviate. It is such a user friendly yarn.

Red Heart Super Save is a medium weight worsted weight yarn with a number 4 on the label.

The solid colour skeins are 7 oz (198 grams) and approximately 364 yards (333 metres). If you get the striped colours then they run smaller weighing 5 oz (14 grams) and 236 yards approx, or 215 metres

 

Care instructions for Red Heart Super Saver.

Another big plus for Red Heart Super Save yarn is that it is so easy to care for.You can wash and dry it in your machines. It is suggested you wash it in warm water and tumble dry. Do not bleach or iron your project. s
