The reason why I clicked so fast on this tutorial is because, well, it’s mainly because it has a handle on it.. and it s such a creative and cute idea! I’m defo using this 24/7 once I’ve made it!
Awesome, I use them all the time and they make great gifts too. Thanks for watching!
Me too and subscribed
Hi! A couple things:
-thank you for this tutorial, the can cozy turned out fantastic 👍
-i like your tutorial style and how specific you are. In regards to the slip stitch, A lot of patterns will usually call for one or the other (as in in the chain or the first stitch) but dont make it clear in the pattern so its a guessing game, so thanks for being specific on exactly where the stitches go!
-your constant counting makes me feel validated because I'm the same way with my projects so im glad im not alone 😅
-i learned the hard way what "size 4" meant because i had neverheard hook sizes be described in that way before 😆 (so for anyone else in that boat: "uk size 4" is a size J/10 6mm in american terms) because i tried starting first with a 4 mm and i quickly realized that was WAY too small. But i started over and it worked out 😄
Hi! Thanks so much for this feedback. I’m glad I was clear in most but the hook size 😅 I do in fact use a 4mm size hook. I am realizing my tension is very loose compared to others and maybe a 5mm or I guess 6mm would be better. Also I will note they should be kinda tight fitting at first as they will stretch a little over time.
This was really fun to make! I used a bit of a thinner yarn so I need to do an extra increase round at the bottom then it fit perfectly! I made this for my dad's birthday, I bet he'll be really happy with it!!
Thanks Fairyy, that’s great problem solving for an alternative weight yarn. Nice job!
I did the same with an extra round around the bottom. Worked perfectly!
Which pattern did you use to add more rows to the bottom? The 2 half doubles in each stitch or the 1 half double then 2 then 1 then 2?
I just went up a hook size H 5m
I am new to crochet and this is the first tutorial I’ve been successful with. Your instructions are very clear and you easily explain how to start each round without going too fast!
Thanks Taylor! Welcome to my channel :)
Me to!! This was my first real finished project and im so excited!❤
You're tutorial is great! I followed along so easily and I love that u speed up the spots with lots of the same stitches. Great idea, I think mines going to turn out FABULOUS
Thank you, very easy to follow. I couldn't wait to show it off and I had a few friends ask me to make one for them!
Only request: please list written pattern on the top of the video -
I often am trying to follow around in a loud area, so I turn the CC on, but it doesn't always pick up what is being said correctly, and when we pause the videos, sometimes we forget what we are supposed to be doing! Also will help out tremendously on the deaf and hard of hearing community 🥰
Thank you!
Thank you for watching, and for the feedback! I do not write out patterns on the videos because I have them for sale here on my website: illjay.com/collections/patterns/products/pdf-pattern-crochet-can-cozy
@@crochet.with.illjay that's not fair that the deaf have no choice but to buy the pattern while the hearing can watch this for free 😐
thank you, this turned out amazing!! great project to do in one sitting-now going to make in a bunch of colors so we can tell our drinks apart 😁
Woohoo! Glad it turned out great.

Yay! Thanks for letting me know. I’m glad you got it as a beginner, Happy crocheting!
Going to try this later this week! I can’t wait. Looks like a perfect little Christmas gift for a beginner like me to make someone!
It makes such a great gift and stocking stuffer! Enjoy
@@crochet.with.illjay Everyone I gave this to really enjoyed it 😁
I just finished one.....YAY making at Least 1 more 🤭 Thank you for the easy tutorial 💜🕯
Thank you for watching, I’m glad you found it easy :)
this was so cool and easy to make! i did mine with a double stitch cuz im still new but i loved the way it turned out and you explained everything really well, thank you !
Thank you Daniela!
love this pattern and tutorial so much!!!! i am prepping for my first market and i’m testing out a few of these in the local school colors :) i ended up modifying ur design and starting the handle with a surface crochet that way
i was able to do a trim around the top in a different color 💕 thank you again, great video
Sounds cool! I’ve sold a bunch at fairs before. Would love to see your version, are you on IG? @crochet.with.illjay
Thank you for this! Your instructions were simple and easy to follow, and the end product was great!
Glad to hear, thanks for watching!
Really cute and fun to make! Great stocking stuffer!! Thank you, it was a pleasure.
😊
Thank you!
Just finished one. And I will definately make some more. Thanks for the tutorial!
Thanks for watching! Enjoy, they make great gifts :)
I'm not sure how this video doesn't have 100K views!
Thanks Isaac! I hope one day it does. I sell and gift these all the time they are always a hit!
Honestly such a great tutorial. I’m just starting to get into crocheting and this was so fun to try! Mines waaay looser as I used a 8 mm hook, but now that I’m comfortable doing this, I’ll try again with the 4mm!
Thank you! I wonder if you could use the 8mm and start moving upward at 18 stitches in the round?
Thank you so much for this tutorial!! It turned out so awesome and it was so easy to make, I am so excited about it!! I think next I am going to try making it bigger to fit my coffee travel mug
Thank you so much! Glad you it was easy for you!
I loved your video, super easy to follow and I'm very happy with my outcome. Making a bunch to sell now
Awesome! I hope they are profitable for you :)

Thanks Nancy!
COOL BEANZZZ
Thank you!
Wonderful & easy to follow tutorial! One question, if you were making a koozie for a taller/skinnier can, how would you adjust the stitches at the beginning? Thank you!
Hi Laura, for an thinner can like a white claw or something, I started with 8 stitches, then increased the same way to 16, then 24. Go up with 24 stitches about 17 rounds :)
@@crochet.with.illjay thank you so much!
I made this and now a coworker wants me to make one for her. Is there a way to do this for a skinny can? Thanks I Love this project keep them coming.
Hi Joseph, that’s great! Yes I’ve made white claw cans before 🤣 I did almost the same thing here but started with 8hdc, and worked up to 24 sts per round.
I ended up making an egg and still love it 😂
An egg?? Lol try 4.5 mm hook if it’s too small
@@crochet.with.illjay yeah I figured as much. got to get some. Thank youuuu
What size yarn did you use ? I tryed this with 4mm and it seems way to small ? :(
Hi Rachel, I used a number 4, worsted weight yarn. Perhaps your gauge is smaller than mine. Try either increasing your gauge or moving up to a size 5mm hook. Thanks for the feedback!
Hi! Thanks for your video! Have you tried will a 'tallboy" can? They are larger than a regular can. I saw the comments on the white claw sized cans and decreasing down to 8 initial stitches. Do you think increasing to 10 would make it wide enough?
I’ve have made the tall boys before! I do the same pattern, but start with 10 stitches, then 20 for rnd 2, and 30 for rnd 3. Then more rounds to make it taller.
In row 3 you say sc, but you are yarning over for an hdc
Watching this in 2024 because I would like to get into crocheting! With that being said, when it comes to doing the slip stitch, how can you tell the chain stitches from the actual first stitch?
As a beginner you should rely heavily on stitch markers for that. I often mark the first and last stitches that count. Sometimes the first stitch is the top of the chain. Sometimes it’s the first actual stitch after the chain. That way you know when to stop making stitches in a round and where to join your slip stitch to
@@hannahflinkert9901 The hooks I ordered are coming with stitch markers because I just knew I'd probably need them 🤣 But thank you
this is a great tutorial :) one question: when doing the slip stitches to close each round, do you crochet through just the back loops? thanks!
Hi Sophie, I slst through both loops, but I don’t suppose it would make a huge difference otherwise.
I’m confused how you have 27 stitches each round of you are slip stitching in the first stitch of every round and not the chain stitch. Wouldn’t that make each round decrease 1?
No because you do the first st of the next round in that same st with the slip st.
I noticed for round 3 you said single crochet in 1 and 2 single crochets in the next, but then did a half double the entire time. Just wondered if you meant half double and said single instead ? 5:12 - 5:24
Do as I do. The pattern is all hdc
@@crochet.with.illjay sounds good , thanks
The only mess up I’ve noticed is on round 3 I believe you said single crochets
Oops! You are right. If that's the only mess up though, I think it'll be ok haha. Thanks!
@@crochet.with.illjay If your Can Cozy, comes up to this height, I wouldn't add another Row, because your Lips might touch the Yarn. Just a suggestion. Thank you, for this Tutorial!
I know it's an old video am still learning but as mentioned b4 u say single crochet in the video ur doing half double crochet?
I've made 2 already thank you. I love the Earth colors. What yarn did you use
Awesome! I used an acrylic but cotton is a good option too.
I guess I did my stitches too tight/small so my bottom ended up looking too small to fit an average can. If I were to add another row onto the bottom, would I use the 2 HDC in each stitch again or use the 1 HDC then 2 then 1 then 2 again until the row is done? Thanks for any help!
Hi Grace. I would recommend two things, either go up a hook size and try the same pattern. Or on round 3, add a few more increases to stitch count is greater, maybe 30 sts.
EPICO
Thank you Priscilla!
Love it ty ! I will try to find u on Instagram n tag ya 🥰💜
Thank you! It’s @_illjay__
I’m so confused. At 5:15 you said single crochet but at 5:28 you did a half double crochet? 😅
Do as I do, not as I say ;)
4 mm hook? 🙂
Yes
@@crochet.with.illjay
Thanks

How do you switch colors ?
Hi Danielle, I don’t usually switch colors when doing such a small project, I prefer variegated yarns for this. If you want to switch yarns though there are multiple ways to do this and I would maybe search a video specifically for switching colors in crochet.
@@crochet.with.illjay what variegated yarn brand is used for the one that shows up on the right hand side at the beginning? It’s also the one that’s in the photo on the pattern sites images (dark brown to light brown and another white to brown one that are in the photo)
what the f are you pulling through the center hole in the beginning of the video?? doesnt look like you yarned over and i have no idea what piece of yarn im pulling through to start the chain T^T
I thought the same! She was just showing us where to put the hook when you do the hdcs. Took me a good 10 minutes to figure out what I was doing wrong. When really I just didn’t watch ahead a little more.
Help pls on 3:07 through 3:11
Do you have a question about this part? We end the rounds with a slst into the first st.
@@crochet.with.illjay i figured it out ty ☺️
I just wanted to double check it fits on a Coca-Cola can
Yes, any standard aluminum can.
