Knit: Oddball Project: Drink Can Cozy

This is not the best photo of the finished cozy - it's hard to see the three raised purl sections that are supposedly there to help you grip the can but are really just decorative.  One more way to use up oddballs of yarn, and not lose coasters outside when the wind blows.

That's a great idea! I'll have to plan my Super Bowl party now, so that I have enough time to knit one for everybody.

"Sorry honey, you can't invite Fred, I didn't finish his cozy..." ;)

Giulia, I made one for a baseball fan in his team colors. He loved it more than pretty much anything else I'd made him.
