3 Tea Light Cozy Crochet Patterns

These 3 cute tea-light cozies make special little gifts for Christmas, New Year’s, Birthdays or any special occasion.

You can give these tea-light cozies as gifts to friends and family, use them as Christmas stocking stuffers or sprinkle them around town as Random Acts of Crochet Kindness (RAOCK).

If you’re looking to spread some Christmas cheer at your workplace or donate to an institution like a hospital or care center, then these quick little makes will surely bring smiles to many people’s faces :smile:

The last of these 3 patterns is a crown design that I created as a memento of the the late Queen Elizabeth II.

I’ve designed a cute little DIY gift box template, that you can purchase from my shop.

I also designed a couple of gift tags to go along with these tea-light cozies. You will find them in my shop as well.

IMPORTANT
These tea-light cozies are not for outdoor use with real flame candles. Please use battery-operated LED Flameless candles. If lighting real tea-light candles, do not leave them unattended and if you are, then know that you are doing so at your own risk.

Materials Needed

• Some DK cotton yarn. I used 100% cotton Lang Handarbeitsgarn (12 ply)
• Crochet hook: I used a size H/8 (2.5 mm) hook.
• Stitch markers or a piece of contrasting color yarn (optional)
• A tapestry needle
• A pair of scissors
• Flameless LED Tea-Light Candles - 38 mm (1.5 in) diameter by 16 mm (0.63 in) height
• Printer & A4 paper to print your tags. You could choose to print your tags on card stock to make them more durable (optional).

Each cozy measures about 2” (5 -6 cm) in diameter

16 sc and 12 rows = 2.5 “ (10cm) with a 2.5 mm crochet hook

Notes
- You can use any type of DK cotton yarn as long as you have a corresponding crochet hook size (check yarn label for recommendations)

• You can make the pattern larger or smaller by changing the type of yarn and/or hook size. Be sure to measure your beginning chain to match the circumference of your candle.

• Numbers at the end of each step (in brackets) indicate the number of final stitches in that step.

• Ch1 at beginning of a row does not count as a stitch.

• Please note that I use US crochet terms.
