King of Beer Cozy Coaster
This one’s for you!
Let’s have one more for the
road.
If you have a husband who
enjoys a good beer at the end of the day,
This cozy is for you.
It not only keeps the beer
cold, but it will keep the hands warm.
And one added benefit is
that it works as a coaster,
So there will be no marks on
the coffee table…
That is unless it is knocked
over and spilled.
It’s another easy pattern
that works up quickly,
And can be made in any color
of your choice.
It uses two strands held
together so it is heavy-duty.
You can use a single color
or mix and match to use up scrap yarn.
It fits snugly around a beer
can, and can be tossed in the washer and dryer.
Father’s Day is coming and
it would make a quick, easy gift.
So have a round of cheers for Grandma
Perkins’ Beer Cozy.
