This is a pattern overview, not a full tutorial. The Fall Crochet Wine Cozy is a scrap-friendly project from Crochet 365 Knit Too, described there as the first in a series of wine cozies. The designer made it for Thanksgiving but notes it suits any fall occasion, and it can be worked in different colors or a single solid shade. It dresses up a wine bottle and can stand in for a gift bag.
Project introduction
Fall brings crisp leaves, golden color and cool days, and this cozy was designed to match that mood. Because it uses leftover worsted weight yarn, the designer points out that no extra money is needed to make one. If you have a free evening, the scrap basket and a hook are enough to get started.
The original post also mentions two earlier cozy projects from the same site, a watermelon coffee cup cozy and a candy corn cup cozy, so there is a small family of seasonal cozies to browse if you enjoy this style. The wine cozy itself is described as easy, which makes it a friendly choice for a first bottle cover.

Fall Crochet Wine Cozy Pattern Overview
The supply list is short and built around stash yarn. Here is the complete checklist exactly as the source lists it:
- Worsted weight yarn in 4 colors. Scrap yarn is perfect.
- Sample yarns: Lion Brand’s Vanna’s Choice in Terra Cotta, Rust and Brick, plus Gold Lion Brand Wool-Ease.
- US J10/6.00 mm crochet hook.
- Tapestry needle.
- Scissors.
The designer also links a Crochet Abbreviations page and a US to UK Crochet Conversion Chart, plus a Tutorial menu where Getting Started covers basic stitches and the Crochet Stitch Dictionary collects stitch tutorials. Those references are useful if any abbreviation in the original pattern looks unfamiliar before you begin.
Cozy
The body is worked with two strands of yarn held together, either by pulling one strand from the outside and one from the inside of the skein or by winding a small ball for the second strand. It starts with a magic ring in Brick, then expands in double crochet before settling into even double crochet rounds.
From there the design moves through repeating two-round bands of color: Terra Cotta, Gold, Rust, Gold, Terra Cotta and Brick, with changes made in slip stitch. The lower rounds switch to single crochet and form two chain loops that create the openings, followed by a final single crochet round worked around. The source lists 24 st for the even double crochet rounds and 42 st for the closing single crochet rounds.
That is the shape of the construction, not the pattern itself. Follow the original for the exact round-by-round sequence.
Tie
The tie is a separate strip in Brick: chain 85, then single crochet in the second chain from the hook and across. After fastening off and weaving in the ends, the strip is woven over and under 2 dc around row 16 and tied into a bow, which is what cinches the cozy around the bottle.
The designer closes by wishing makers a beautiful fall wine cozy for the Thanksgiving table, and invites finished projects to be shared on Instagram, Facebook or the Crochet365KnitToo Club.
