Around the web there are a number of free can cozy pattern. But when trying to pick out the perfect one for a Father's Day gift, I just wasn't in love with any of the options. So, I headed to my design space, picked out some scrap colors I knew my man would like, and came up with the pattern. I worked it so that the pattern is intentionally inside-out, filled with tight stitches so you can't see through the crochet (a problem I noticed with many of the existing can cozy patterns), and a stripe of color that is worked on the surface of the cozy. Make one as a gift, or make a whole set. Vary the stripe color on each can cozy and you'll have the perfect way to tell each persons soda apart ;) The free version is below, and if you prefer an ad-free, PDF version, it is available on RAVELRY. Happy Crocheting, Cherie Inside Out Ridges Can Cozy
