Frankenstein Mason Jar Cozy Crochet Pattern

During one of our walks this weekend, Jason and I noticed pumpkins, spooky lawn decorations, so many beautiful orange leaves on the ground, and a cloudy, chilling haze overhead. Halloween was definitely in the air!

It was a little cold so to make our nature walk that much better I decided to grab a pumpkin spice latte. Ever since I started making mason jar cozies I’ve been getting into the habit of bringing a mason jar with a cute cozy when I order a drink at a coffee shop. I had just finished crocheting my latest cozy and was able to enjoy my PSL while using my Frankenstein mason jar cozy!

I also bought a reusable jar drinking lid on Cuppow, which is very awesome and BPA-free. Oh, and in case you were wondering, the mason jar is perfect for a size tall (12oz) pumpkin spice latte!

I can never take a serious picture when Jason is behind the camera. But you can probably tell I thoroughly enjoyed walking around drinking out of a cute mason jar.
