Free Patterns: Recipe for Relaxation Knit & Crochet Mason Jar Cozy + Free Printable Gift Tags

The holiday season is in full swing! Today, we have two free patterns for a quick gift you can whip up in just a few hours. These mason jar cozies are a fun and festive way to package a thoughtful gift, and mason jars can hold so many things: colorful candies, hot chocolate or baking ingredients, or relaxing bath salts (we share our favorite recipe below!). Whether you knit or crochet, we've got you covered with this simple pattern using a bulky weight yarn. Enjoy!

Recipe for Relaxation: Relaxing Bath Salts
Depending on the size of your jar, you will need to double, triple, or quadruple this base recipe. You'll need 1/2 c. Epsom salts (found at most grocery or drug stores), 1/2 c. baking soda, and 10-20 drops of your favorite essential oil. Some popular choices include lavender (relaxing), rose absolute (relieves anxiety), bergamot (uplifting), eucalyptus (great for cold & flu season), or tangerine (calming). Mix everything together in a clean bowl and transfer to your mason jar.

Winner + Free Crochet Mitts Pattern

Congratulations to Raveler mmmgood304, who won this month's giveaway for a Chunky Mesh Wrist Warmers kit! We'll be in touch with you shortly to arrange for the delivery of your prize.

Our previous blog post featured a free pattern to knit a quick pair of mitts using our Jumbo Birch needles and two skeins of Briggs & Little Super Yarn, and we promised a freebie for our fans who crochet in this week's blog post. These simple mitts are very easy to customize for a variety of hand sizes and stitch up ultra-quickly using just 1 skein of Briggs & Little Super Yarn and a Jumbo Birch crochet hook.

Enjoy!

Quick Crochet Wrist Warmers

by Stefanie Goodwin-Ritter

Supplies:

• 1 skein Briggs & Little Super yarn in Jade
• 1 20.00mm Jumbo Birch Crochet Hook
• 1 set Knitter's Pride Knit Blockers
• Knitter's Pride Blocking Mats 
• Knitter's Pride Wool Needles
• Your favorite wool wash

Gauge: 5 sts and 4 rows = 4 inches in single crochet, blocked

Finished Dimensions: 7" circumference, 7" length (allow approx. 1" negative ease; see instructions below for how to customize your fit)

About this pattern: A bulky weight yarn is worked with a larger hook size to product a mesh-like single crochet fabric. What makes this yarn special is the story: Bricggs & Little is Canada's oldest woolen mill and produces premium yarns spun from 100% domestic wool, and is milled, carded, dyed, and spun at their factory in York Mills, New Brunswick, Canada.

The finished mitts will be very stretchy, so be sure to knit the size that is approximately an inch smaller than your desired hand circumference. Don't be alarmed by the size and shape of your project while it is being knit - the magic is in the blocking!

Mitts (Make 2):

Ch 9 and work single crochet in 8 sts, beginning with second ch from hook.

Single crochet all rows until piece measures 6 inches from start. For your final row worked once you have achieved your intended length, slip stitch in final stitch, snip your yarn end leaving several inches for seaming, and pull through to secure yarn end.

How to get a custom fit: If you would like to create mitts with a larger or smaller circumference, you can add or subtract rows here - just be sure to take into account the notes above regarding negative ease and gauge when blocked.


With wool needle or tapestry needle, seam five inches of cast on and bound off edge together; leave the next 1.5 inches unseamed for thumb; tack the opposite edge together for top of mitt.

Wash your mitts in your favorite wool wash and lay flat to dry on Knitter's Pride Blocking Mats. To achieve stated dimensions and neat edges, use Knitter's Pride Knit Blockers as directed in our previous blog post, found here.

Wear & enjoy!

Today, we share a simple pattern to make with our Jumbo Birch needles and two skeins of Briggs & Little Super Yarn.

For our friends to crochet, we will be sharing a free crochet pattern later this month right here on our blog.

Enjoy!

Chunky Mesh Wrist Warmers

by Stefanie Goodwin-Ritter

Supplies:

• 1 skein Briggs & Little Super yarn in Jade
• 1 skein Briggs & Little Super yarn in Light Green
• 1 pair Knitter's Pride US 50/25.00mm Jumbo Birch Needles
• 1 set Knitter's Pride Knit Blockers
• Knitter's Pride Blocking Mats 
• Knitter's Pride Wool Needles
• Your favorite wool wash

Gauge: 3.5 sts and 8 rows = 4 inches in pattern stitch, blocked

Finished Dimensions: 7" circumference, 7" length

(allow approx. 1" negative ease; see instructions below for how to customize your fit)

About this pattern: Yarn is held doubled throughout. What makes this yarn special is the story: Briggs & Little is Canada's oldest woolen mill and produces premium yarns spun from 100% domestic wool, and is milled, carded, dyed, and spun at their factory in York Mills, New Brunswick, Canada.

The finished mitts will be very stretchy, so be sure to knit the size that is approximately an inch smaller than your desired hand circumference. Don't be alarmed by the size and shape of your project while it is being knit - the magic is in the blocking!

Mitts (Make 2):

With yarn held double, cast on 6 stitches.

Begin knitting flat in seed stitch as follows:

Row 1 (RS): *k1, p1, rep from * to end.
Row 2 (WS): *p1, k1, rep from * to end.

Repeat these two rows of seed stitch til piece measures 7 inches from cast on.

How to get a custom fit: for a smaller hand circumference, work fewer rows here; for a larger hand circumference, work more rows. If you are achieving the stated gauge, each two-row repeat will add or subtract and inch from your intended circumference.

Once you have achieved your intended length, bind off all stitches in pattern.

With wool needle or tapestry needle, seam five inches of cast on and bound off edge together; leave the next 1.5 inches unseamed for thumb; tack the opposite edge together for top of mitt.

Wash your mitts in your favorite wool wash and lay flat to dry on Knitter's Pride Blocking Mats . To achieve stated dimensions (you will need to stretch your mitts lengthwise a bit to get the 7" length) and neat edges, use Knitter's Pride Knit Blockers like so:

Wear & enjoy!
