Free pattern: Mason jar drinking glass cozy

Heather from Magnolia Skies and Naturally Crafted Mama shares a free pattern for making a cozy for your mason jar drinking glasses. It’s made from a felted sweater that will absorb condensation and protect your hands from the cold (or the hot, if you’re drinking a warm beverage). It’s an easy sewing project, requiring just one seam. And because the edges won’t fray, no hemming is required. Before you sew it up, you can have fun adding an applique or embellishment to give it personality. Get the free pattern from Naturally Crafted Mama.
