Crochet Christmas Wine Glass Holder
Materials Needed:
- Hook: 4.5 mm crochet hook
- Yarn: Worsted weight yarn
Wine Glass Holder Pattern:
Foundation Ring & Base:
- Start with a slipknot on your hook, then chain 24 (or a multiple of 4, depending on the base of the glass size).
- Slip stitch to the first chain to form a ring.
- Chain 1, then single crochet in each chain around. You should have the same number of single crochets as your starting chains (e.g., 24).
- To complete round 2, slip stitch to the first single crochet.
Body:
- Chain 3 (counts as a double crochet), then chain 3 more (counts as the chain space).
- Double crochet into the same space.
- Skip three chains, double crochet into the fourth stitch, chain three, and double crochet back into the same stitch.
- Repeat step 7 around. You'll have a series of double crochet, chain 3, double crochet patterns around.
Fan Pattern Rounds:
- Join the last stitch to the third chain of the starting chain six.
- Slip stitch into the first chain 3 space, chain 3, and make 6 double crochets into the same chain 3 space, counting the chain 3 as the first double crochet, making it 7 double crochets in total into that space.
- Repeat this around for each chain 3 space.
- After completing this round, slip stitch to close.
Repeat of Body Pattern Adjusted to Fans:
- Slip stitch into the 4th double crochet of the first fan to position, chain three, double crochet, chain three, double crochet in the middle top of the fan.
- Repeat this process, matching the double crochet, chain three, double crochet pattern to the top of each fan from the previous round.
Finalizing the Holder:
- If necessary based on the glass size, repeat the fan rounds. The example uses two rounds for a 175ml glass.
Strap:
- Determine the desired length for the strap and chain accordingly (the example mentions 115 chains for demonstration).
- Fold the holder in half to find the opposite side and slip stitch to join the strap.
- Single crochet back along the chain length for the strap.
- Once reaching the end, turn and slip stitch into each single crochet to reinforce.
- Fasten off and weave in ends.
Holly Leaves:
- With a 2mm hook, start with a chain of 10.
- Follow the leaf pattern by creating a series of slip stitches, single crochets, half doubles, doubles, and picots to form the edges of the leaves.
- Slip stitch to finish and leave a tail for attaching to the holder.
Berries:
- Chain 4 and join to form a circle.
- Within the circle, make 6 single crochets, then follow the pattern to increase and then decrease to form the berry shape.
- Leave a long tail for sewing onto the holder.
