Crochet Pumpkin Wine Cozy Pattern
I love wine. I mean, I really, really LOVE wine. In fact, wine tasting excursions are a regular thing in my routine. I DO live in wine country after all! I’m very blessed to live in an area where the wineries are a stone’s throw in any direction from me. Walking distance, even!
To support my love for wine, of course I needed to create something to dress my wine glasses in. These crochet pumpkin wine glasses cozies are perfect for the fall/Halloween/Thanksgiving season! How lovely would you Thanksgiving table set up look with all your wine glasses dressed in these crochet pumpkin cozies??
Additionally, I always thought it would be fun to put a little tealight in the bottom of a wine glass with a crochet pumpkin cozy. Wouldn’t that look so pretty and cozy? (no pun intended!)
This pumpkin cozy pattern is fairly simple and works up quickly making it the perfect piece to make for those fall markets. It’s also quite versatile and can be made to fit most any size glass, bottle or can!
This is the cactus version of the pumpkin cozy that I modified to fit a standard beer can.

Instructions:
Materials needed:
- I Love This Cotton or your favorite worsted weight cotton
- G6 (4.5mm) crochet hook
- Scissors
- Tapestry needle (for sewing in ends)
- Your favorite wine glass!
Skill level:
Beginner. This pattern uses beginner friendly stitches. I have included photo tutorials for specific stitches/techniques throughout the pattern.
Pattern notes:
- This pattern is written in standard US crochet terms.
- This pattern in worked in the round.
- The chain one (or chain two) at the beginning of each round does not count as a stitch.
- This pattern is written to fit a standard red wine glass, however, it is so versatile! You can use practically any size wine glass (or beer can). Just increase or decrease the number of stitches in any even number, add as many rows as you need and you are good to go 🙂
Stitches used and abbreviations:
- ch = chain
- sp = space
- st/sts = stitch/stitches
- sl st = slip stitch
- sc = single crochet
- dc = double crochet
- tr = treble crochet
- fpdc = front post double crochet
- bpdc = back post double crochet
Special stitches:
- fpdc: you will work your double crochet as normal. However, you will be working around the post of the stitch in the previous row rather than through the top loops. Insert your hook from the right side of your work and make a dc around the stitch from the previous row.
- bpdc: the same as the fpdc, but you will insert your hook from the wrong side of your work, and make your dc around the back of the stitch from the previous row.
*You will need a main color (MC) and contrasting color (CC) for the vine/leaf.
To adjust the size of the cozy, you can increase/decrease the number of stitches in increments of 2. Add (or take away) as many rows as needed for your favorite glass!

Making the vine and leaf for the crochet pumpkin cozy
Step 1: ch 15, 2 sc in 2nd ch from hook, sc in next ch, [2 sc in next ch, 1 sc in next ch] all the way down. Sl st to the st on the left of where you started the chain. Do not fasten off.

Step 3: In ch 4 sp, you will: 3 dc, tr, ch 3, sl st to 3rd ch from hook, tr, 3 dc, sl st to same st as ch 4. Fasten off and weave in ends.
To cinch the bottom of the cozy to fit your wine glass:
Thread a tapestry needle with the tail. Weave your needle in and out of the bottom stitches all the way around. Slip the cozy on your wine glass, and pull the tail to close the opening until it is where you want it. Make sure you don’t close it so much that you can’t take it off the base. Secure it, and weave in the rest of the tail.
*For beer cans or any other straight container, you will not need to cinch the bottom.
For the cactus variation, simply use green yarn and add a little flower.
