Fox Cozy...for Mason Jar

Here's a quick and easy home decor project - Fox Cozy.  I used mine to fit around a wide mouth quart-sized Mason Jar.  But, you can easily adjust foundation chain smaller or bigger to fit a different-sized object of your choice.  I know I've been making quite a few "fox" themed projects lately, but it's all been from one skein of Hobby Lobby's, I Love This Yarn, in Terra Cotta.  I love getting the most out of a skein.  And, I truly believe I achieved a lot of bang for my buck on this skein.  

So, check out my previous posts for additional "Fox" themed ideas.
