Crochet Pattern: Water Bottle Cozy
By Rachel Choi – 9 CommentsEver get tired of a wet water bottle in the summer? Lots of us love to have our water nice and cold to cool us down, but don’t want all the condensation (water bottle sweat) all over our bags or hands. This simple cozy is fast to crochet and will help absorb the condensation from your water bottle! This pattern requires color changes, if you do not already know how to change colors in crochet, it’s never too late to learn, or you can choose not to change colors in the pattern.
Finished Size: 2 3/4″ (7 cm) in diameter, 5″ (13 cm) tall
Gauge: rounds 1 – 2 in pattern creates a circle measuring 2 3/4″ in diameter |

yay fun! i made one for my nalgene. i increased round 3 to 32 dc and that made it big enough and i did 17 or 18 rounds.
Great idea, Rachel! Water bottle sweat is horrible – especially if it dampens everything else in your bag. This is on my list of new patterns to try!
Another amazing pattern. I whipped this one up while watching Tool Academy 3 online last night lol. I’m going to make more for the rest of my family. We’re big on water bottles.
I made it into a carrier by adding the strap from your water bottle holder pattern http://www.crochetspot.com/crochet-pattern-water-bottle-holder/ and it looks great.
Thank you.
I am making these water bottle covers in Red,White, and Blue for all my friends and relatives for the 4th of July.

I made this for my boyfriend as a koozie for his fav beer, in a bottle. He loves it and I can wash it when it gets overused. GREAT IDEAS!! Love the site. – k
I don’t think this is very practical, won’t the water get warm?
Hey, you could make this out of absorbent “yarn” like sham-wow cut into strips & knotted together, or just really long skinny pieces if it comes in a big roll… Also, what about wrapping a cylinder (just tape, glue or staple one side closed) of the insulating foil wrap that ships cold items (about 1/4 inch thick) that would take care of the last lady’s concern, and would look much nicer with your custom crocheted bag surrounding/covering it!
Hi, Everybody’!
I just “wasted” a whole morning surfing this website, looking at the lessons and the patterns and the comments and the pictures and the lessons again, etc.
The most fun I’ve had since Christmas! I’m waiting, now, for Amazon to deliver my hook-kit and I’m away!!
Many thanks for the inspiration – I’m going to start simple, but will eventually make a whole load of Amigurumi!
