Lightsaber Ice Pop Cozies

Lightsaber Ice Pop Cozy Free Pattern
Lately, I've been seeing crocheted ice pop cozies popping up all over the place online. There are lots of different designs, but my favorites definitely have to be the ones that look like lightsabers. What could be better than keeping your hands insulated from a cold ice pop straight from the freezer while looking like a Jedi? So I made up this quick little pattern in 3 different sizes: toddler, child, and adult. And I'm sharing it with you for free so that you can make your own!  

Below is a step-by-step picture tutorial for the child-sized lightsaber. If you're just interested in the pattern by itself or in different sizes, you can find them at the bottom of this post.

If you're interested in a printable, PDF version of this pattern you can find one on Ravelry. 
Materials:
  • Worsted weight yarn; I used I Love This Cotton! Yarn in Dove, Black, and Burnt Sienna
  • Size D (3.25mm) crochet hook
  • Size F (3.75mm) crochet hook
  • Tapestry needle

Stitch Glossary:
st(s) = stitch(es)
ch = chain
ss = slip stich
sc = single crochet
inc = 2 sc in the same st

Note: This pattern is worked in joined rounds, meaning that at the end of round you'll join the last stitch to the first stitch of the round with a slip stitch and then begin the next round without turning the piece. This creates a more uniform appearance for the base of the lightsaber
Base (Child):
Begin with gray yarn. 
Round 1: Make a magic circle and work 8 sc into the magic circle. Join with a ss to the first sc. (8)
Round 2: Ch 1, inc in the same st and in each st around. Join with a ss to the first sc. (16)

Round 3:  Ch 1, working in the back loops only, sc in the same st ad in each st around. Join with a ss to the first sc. (16)

Round 4-9: Ch 1, sc in the same st and in each st around. Join with a ss to the first sc. (16)

Using black yarn and a tapestry needle, stitch the stripes along the base of the lightsaber. I chose to add 5 stripes, 3-4 sts apart (trying to space them evenly). Each stripe begins at the base of the lightsaber and extends up across 4 rounds. Feel free to add more stripes or fewer stripes in order to get the exact look you want.

You are a freaking GODDESS! I will make a couple of these for myself because I don't think my nephews will be old enough to understand this...maybe my brother in law and sister will. ;D Rock on, wait, no...may the force be with you!

I love these so much! Our office is decorated in Star Wars theme. :) What skill level is this and how long does it take to make?

How fun! These are pretty simple to put together, so they're fairly beginner friendly; if the magic ring gives you trouble, you can easily chain 3-4 sts and slip stitch to form a ring instead. It's worked in the round, so I might not suggest it for someone's very first crochet project, but I think it should be doable for a beginner. These are small, so I'd estimate less than an hour to make one.
