As the holiday season approaches, there’s no better way to celebrate than with a touch of handmade warmth.

If you’re a beginner crocheter or just looking for a creative and practical crochet wine bottle bag, you’re in luck! In this blog post, I am excited to share a free crochet pattern for a crochet wine bottle holder made from super bulky yarn.

Whether you’re looking for a great hostess gift or birthday gift, or simply want to add a personal touch to your holiday season, this crochet wine bag pattern is the perfect project for you and will protect that fragile glass bottle of your favourite wine.

Substituting Yarn

Before we dive into the details, let’s talk about the versatility of this pattern. While the pattern suggests super bulky yarn for a quick and cozy result, feel free to experiment with different yarn weights. If you opt for a worsted weight yarn and a smaller hook, this cozy pattern will fit a standard size wine bottle and is easy to personalize with different colours or appliques making it a great holiday gift.

Gift Giving

Imagine presenting a bottle of wine or champagne in a beautifully crafted crochet wine bag – it’s not just a gift; it’s a piece of your time and effort. Handmade gifts hold a special place in the heart, and this crochet wine bottle cover pattern allows you to create a thoughtful and functional present for any occasion.

Whether it’s a girls night out champagne, a holiday gathering, or a hostess gift, your handmade wine bag is sure to impress. Plus, it’s a great last-minute option for those who appreciate the charm of a homemade touch.

Pattern Details

This crochet pattern includes various stitches such as slip stitches, single crochet, and half double crochet and if you want to use a magic circle to start this crochet bottle bag you can do that instead of the chain 2 technique I use in almost all of my patterns.

Originally I was thinking to make these crochet bottle bags out of worsted weight yarn but truth be told it would take me way too long to make them so I decided that super bulky was the answer because not only does this make them so much quicker to crochet but they also work up working two strands of worsted together giving even more options and making it a fantastic stash buster too!

The fun part about these crochet wine bottle cozies is they are great to use as crochet wine totes too! Because they are made from super bulky yarn the bags are quite thick adding a nice padding if you are throwing bottle of your favourite wine into your bag on your way out.

I added this appliqué I searched and searched my stash for the one I purchased a few years ago – gave up and went to Fabricland found this one for $1.30! An inexpensive finishing touch.⁣

Rnds 5-36: Sc in 1st st and each st around. (24)

Fasten off and weave in ends.

Ribbed Band

The band for the bag is worked in rows and attached as you go. Here is a simple video that will help with the construction of the ribbed band if needed.

Please work the slip stitches loosely. If they are worked too tight you will be making the opening of the bag smaller. Keep them loose for best results.

Change to 6.50 mm hook

With wrong side facing, join yarn at centre back with slst, ch 10.

Note: For row 2 and every odd row, use a stitch marker to indicate the last stitch of the row. This will help you locate the first stitch of the following row.

Row 1: Hdc in 3rd ch from hook and each ch across (8) Working into sts of the last round , slst in next 2 sts, Ch 1, turn.

Row 2: Hdc in blo in 1st and each ch across (8). Ch 1, turn.

Row 3: Hdc in blo of 1st and each hdc across (8) Mark last hdc with stitch marker. Working into sts of round 1, slst in next 2 sts, Ch 1, turn.

Row 4: Hdc in blo in 1st and each hdc across (8). Ch 1, turn.

Repeat rows 3 and 4 until you reach the end of the round.

After last row, join short ends of cuff by working a slip stitch across first and last rows of cuff. NOTE: Right side of the bag and seam should be facing you. Once the cuff is turned down the right side of the seam will be facing out.

TIE

Leave tail at least 12” long at the beginning and end for attaching pompoms.

Using 9mm hook Ch 80 leave long tail

POM POMS (Make 2)

This doesn’t have to be exact, if you don’t have a pompom maker you can use a 3” X 3” piece of cardboard

Wind yarn around cardboard approx 100 times. Slide off cardboard and tie yarn around middle as tight as possible. Cut all loops and trim pom pom to size and shape desired.

Use needle and long tail from tie work back and forth through pompom
