Hey Dearies! So, since we are in summer, I wanted to give you all a pattern that was perfect for this season! As I was growing up, one of the favorite cold treat to have on a hot day, other than ice cream, was freeze pops!
We would always have so many of them that the only ones that were left in the fridge were the colors that we didn’t care to have. My favorites were red, pink, and of course blue!
These cozies are not only super cute, but they are perfect for the little ones and those who don’t like holding cold stuff in their hands. These are just a simple and very basic to make, so if you are short on time, these can be finished within a few minutes, depending on how fast you crochet.
I have also included two sets of the same pattern, one for switching colors and the other one for making just solid colors. The color switching one will be first and the solid color one will be after that.
Here’s what you will need:
- Medium Yarn (In any color you would like, or have two colors for more fun!)
- 4.5 mm hook
- Stitch Markers (This is optional, but if you are a beginner, I highly recommend to use.)
- Sewing Needle
Let’s Begin! (Color Switching)
Chain 13 and slip stitch into the first ch to create a ring.
Round 1: Ch 2. 13 half double crochet in the ring, slip stitch on the top of your ch 2 to close. Work each round continuously; use a stitch marker to help keep track of the rounds.
Round 2: 13 half double crochet around.
Round 3: 13 half double crochet around.
Round 4: 13 half double crochet around. (This is where you can choose to switch colors if you like.)
Round 5: 13 half double crochet around.
Round 6: 13 half double crochet around.
Round 7: 13 half double crochet around. (This is where you would switch your colors again.)
Round 8: 13 half double crochet around.
Round 9: 13 half double crochet around.
Finish off and sew in ends.

This is something that can be done very quickly and it’s also fun to mix the colors around. These are also perfect for selling at craft fairs since it is something simple to create!
Also, if you don’t like the size of the cozie, you can always add more rows to make it longer.
Another thing, if you wanted it to sit at the end of the freeze pop, you can always sew the bottom of it. However, I like the cozy being the size it is since it’s easier to move and adjust when you are eating the freeze pop.
