Corelle Bowl Cozy Free Crochet Pattern

Microwaveable crochet bowl cozies had their moment in 2018 and I thought they were a brilliant idea. After searching for the perfect free pattern for a bowl cover that would fit my Corelle dinnerware I finally decided to just design my own. This free pattern is easy enough for a beginner and works up quickly so that you’ll have the perfect bowl cozy in just 12 rounds. 

Microwaveable Bowl Cozies Pattern

I don’t know if it’s a southern thing or what but everybody and their Grandma has Correlle dishes where I come from. They’re light, durable, and come in heaps of patterns. Plus, the dinnerware sets come in standard dimensions so my bowls are the same size as Aunt Susie’s.

Microwaveable Correlle Bowl Cozy Crochet Pattern

When I first saw crochet bowl covers trending I loved the idea. We microwave things all the time and are constantly dealing with the dreaded “hot bowl” syndrome. Oatmeal, grits, and spaghettios are a regular occurrence around here.

So I hopped on Pinterest to find a free pattern for bowl cozies but became frustrated when multiple crochet patterns didn’t begin to fit my Corelle bowls. Enter me.

These work up so quickly and not only make a great addition to your kitchen but I think would sell well at local markets and craft fairs.  Keep scrolling for the free pattern and video tutorial or purchase the ad-free PDF in my shop or with the button below.

Materials

post contains affiliate links

  • One small 2.5 oz ball of cotton yarn (I used Peaches and Cream in Rosemary)
  • 4.25 mm G hook ( I use the one from this set )
  • Scissors
  • Needle for weaving in ends (my fav!)

Stitches used:

  • magic circle
  • slip stitch
  • half double crochet
  • single crochet (back loop only)

Note: Always Ch 1 at the beginning of a row. Join each row with a slip stitch to the first stitch of the row.

Beginning in magic circle (if unfamiliar with magic circle, chain 3 and slip stitch to first chain to create circle):

R1: 10 HDC in circle

R2: 2 HDC in each st around. (20 sts)

R3: HDC in first st, 2 HDC in next st. Repeat pattern around. (30sts)

R4: HDC in first 2 sts, 2 HDC in next st. Repeat pattern around. (40 sts)

R5: HDC in first 3 sts, 2 HDC in next st. Repeat pattern around. (50 sts)

R6: HDC in each st around. (50 sts)

R7: HDC in first 9 sts, 2 HDC in next stitch. Repeat pattern around. (55 sts)

R8: HDC around. (55sts)

R9: HDC in first 10 sts, 2 HDC in next stitch. Repeat pattern around. (60 sts)

R10: HDC around. (60 sts)

R11: HDC in first 11 sts, 2 HDC in next st. Repeat pattern around. (65 sts)

Ugly Christmas Blanket Crochet Pattern

Merrrrrrry Christmas! Okay, so I know there’s not enough time to whip up this cheery blanket before the big guy comes down the chimney but that shouldn’t stop you from adding it to your holiday hooking!

Ugly Sweater Christmas Blanket Crochet Pattern

This free graph pattern is full to the brim of Christmas spirit and I’m dyyyyyying to see it worked up. Truth be told I don’t think it’s ugly. I think it will make a gorgeous blanket but I don’t have the time or the energy to tackle it!

If you crochet this ugly sweater christmas throw, please share it in the Psychedelic Doilies Facebook Group! Join now. 

Do you love it as much as I do? Pin it with the image below.

The graph is 99 x 77 tiles large so, depending on the stitch you choose, it should make a  good sized medium or “throw” sized blanket. I cannot predict the exact size of your finished project. Every hooker’s blanket will vary in size depending on yarn, hook size, stitch choice, and personal tension. For example, traditional corner to corner vs mini c2c will change the size of the end product.

New to  Crocheting Graphs?

If you’re interested in corner to corner (c2c) or mini c2c check out this post for heaps of tutorials. You’ll find tips and techniques for color changing, bobbins (very important!), and more.  If corner to corner is not for you, check out this post for a couple other options for crocheting a graph including the bobble stitch and HDC method.

The free PDF file includes a full sized version of the graph and a nine part breakdown which you may choose to print out and tape together so that the tiles are larger and easier to see.

Elf Graphghan Blanket Crochet Pattern

Two panels released this week – one “official” panel and one top secret bonus panel.

I’ll be sharing my two panels from last week in this post as well because life got as full as a new bottom of syrup and I failed to publish a blog post for week 4. 

Week 4 Panels

Clausometer

Everyone knows that the best way to spread Christmas cheer is singing loud for all to hear. I used the super fun metallic yarn again for the green to give it an extra kick of Christmas Spirit. 

Spaghetti 

Is there sugar in syrup? Well then YES, this panel is my favorite for the entire crochet along. I added bead details in my piece to represent candy and I feel very Buddy about the whole thing. 

Week 5 

Buddy!

The one and only human elf. Once again I used Bernat Pipsqueak for some fluffy fun details. 

Buddy The Elf Graphghan Christmas Blanket

Three panels released this week – two “official” panels and one top secret bonus panel.

First up, Buddy’s snow globe.

Snow globe from Buddy the Elf

He could never have made his way through the seven levels of the candy cane forest, the sea of swirly twirly gumdrops, or walked though the Lincoln tunnel to find his dad without his trusty snow globe.

As you can see, I’m using any and every excuse to use this sweet, tinsely yarn from Hobby Lobby. It looks so perfect in this panel.

Next up, that treacherous jack in the box.

Three panels released this week – two official panels and one top secret bonus panel.

First up this week, a truly remarkable accomplishment – the world’s best cup of coffee.

I’m trying to give every panel in this crochet along a little something extra to make Buddy proud. In this panel I used I Love This Yarn Metallic in Peacock to represent the shining neon sign.

If you’re making this blanket for that special someone in your life, I’ve got you covered.

I used the super fun and floofy Bernat Pipsqueak yarn again this week to give the top of the lingerie that feathery awesomeness. Then I added a simple chain ribbon that I sewed on with a bit of red yarn. I love it so much!
