Quick, yarn stash busting, super handy bowl cozy – seriously the most used crochet item in our house! I mean think about how many times you have served a bowl of chili or warmed it up in the microwave and…Ouch! It is just too hot to handle. Every time I reached for a pot holder to put under the bowl, I thought I need to make a bowl cozy. I mean, Why not? We made them for coffee cups. Why should the mugs get all the love? Well I finally did it and since it uses two strands of worsted weight or your favorite medium weight yarn it works up super quick in only ten rounds! It can’t get better than that. You only need 1.5 ozs of yarn.

Please note: I have used these in the microwave for up to two minutes, but you will need to test your yarn and always monitor it. I normally just pull the bowl out and slip it into the cozy because I do not want the cozy to be warm.
