I often use mason jars to infuse tea bag on the go, or to carry soup for lunch in my back pack. Here is a little jar cozy to keep fingers comfortable! Not only does it protect your fingers from the heat, it also keeps your drink hot (or cold) longer and makes your mason jar even cuter! It would also be a nice wrapping for a gift in a jar. Just put some little things in a jar (tea bags, hot cocoa mix or jam) and cover it with your handmade cozy!

The pattern for a plain jar cozy is also available on my blog : http://sweetteasoftskeins.blogspot.ca/2013/11/frosty-jar-...
