basket weave cozie

i used majic loop to make these you could use double pointed needles or straight needles ( i have not tried them with straight needles) if you use straight needles you will have to sew up the side seam.

you will need

100% cotton yarn

size 6 us needles

row counter

stitch marker (if using majic loop or double pointed needles)

darning needle

cast on 40 sts

rows 1-5 - *knit 5, purl 5, repeat from * around

rows 6- 10- * purl 5, knit 5, repeat from * around

rows 11-15- repeat rows 1-5

rows 16 - 20- repeat rows 6-10

rows 21- 25 - repeat rows 1-5

rows 26- 30 - repeat rows 6-10

rows 31, 33, 35 - * k1, k2tog, repeat from * around

rows 32, 34,36 (after row 36 you should have 12 stitches left) - k around

cut a tail and run it through the 12 stitchs. pull tight and sew it away.
