Crochet Cozy Carolina Panthers -- 24 oz cans...Free pattern

Carolina Panthers football cozy for a 24 oz Monster can.

Materials:
--5.5 mm hook
--#4 worsted weight yarn in turquoise, gray, black and white
--tapestry needle

Special Note:  If you're not familiar or comfortable with the Herringbone Half Double Crochet (HHDC) stitch, you can easily just use the Half Double Crochet (HDC) stitch.  The website, newstitchaday, has a wonderful tutorial on HHDC. I love the texture and look of the HHDC stitch so much more than the HDC stitch.


Pattern:
1.  I started with turquoise.  First row, 12 HHDC into a magic ring.
2.  Second row, I worked 2 HHDC into each stitch around.
3.  Third row, I worked *2 HHDC in first stitch, then 1 HHDC in the next 3 stitches*...repeat around.  4.  Fourth & fifth rows, 1 HHDC in each stitch around.  Last stitch, switch to black.
5.  Sixth row, 1 HHDC in each stitch around.  Last stitch, switch to gray.
6.  Seventh row, 1 HHDC in each stitch around. Switch back to turquoise.
7.  Eighth thru fourteenth row, 1 HHDC in each stitch around.  Last stitch, switch to gray.
8.  Fifteenth row, 1 HHDC in each stitch around.  Last stitch, switch to black.
9.  Sixteenth row, 1 HHDC in each stitch around.  Switch back to turquoise.
10.  Last row, 1 HHDC in each stitch around.  Weave ends.

In white yarn, use tapestry needle to embroider football stitches.

Enjoy!!!
