I designed these easy peasy bowl cosies after seeing quilted fabric ones online. They are quickly worked up in rounds and can be made in stripes or just one colour! Just reach into your stash of scrap cotton yarns, grab a 2.5mm crochet hook and get crocheting! I chose cotton yarn for its durability. My bowl cosies have been through the washing machine over and over with minimal signs of wear. This pattern should fit a bowl approximately 15-17cm in diameter at the top, 6-8cm at the base and 7cm high.

TagsPlastic Bag Holder - Free Crochet Pattern
Recently we made a move into a new house, as we were unpacking I began to collect a large pile of plastic grocery bags. I generally use this bags pretty often so I didn’t want to throw them away. That’s when I realized I didn’t have a bag holder to put them in. Moving can be pretty expensive so the last thing I wanted to do was purchase one knowing full well I could make one myself, so I did!
You can easily make this bag as long as you want to fit more grocery bags, my family is pretty small so I made a smaller bag holder. If you want a larger one just work more rounds in-between the increases/decreases.
I always recommend using cotton yarn when working an anything household related. For this pattern I used Peaches and Cream’s Cotton yarn which you can find HERE. They have so many colors to choose from!
