Crochet your own tealight covers

Here in the South of France, winter time is coming slowly to its end. The sun is shining and it is even nice to sit outside in the sun with a cup of coffee or a glass of wine. You can say here that spring is in the air. :-)
That must be the reason why light colors are catching my eyes the last few days. So I have decided to crochet some tealight covers in over to bring some fresh colors into my apartment.
I had these little glasses laying around at home. They have a diameter of 5.5cm (2.5 inch) and a height of 6.5cm (2.6 inch).
They are not very big but they are so cute at the coffee table or even at the table during dinner. (I am definitely a candle person). :-)

This is again a very simple pattern but effective!!





Material:
- 100% cotton
- yarn needle
- crochet hook 3 mm

Crochet Terms:
ch = chain
sl st = slip stitch
sc = single crochet

PATTERN

Pattern is written in US crochet terms.
Chain 27 on hook size 3mm and form a ring with 1 sl st in first ch.

Row1: 1ch, *1sc in next ch*, repeat *-*, 25 times and finish with 1 sl st in first ch
Row 2: 1ch, *1sc in next sc*, repeat *-*  25 times and finish with 1 sl st in first ch

Repeat Row 2, 8 more times and finish off, weave in ends.

Tip: make sure when starting chaining 27 that the ring you will form seems rather a bit small for the glass. Like this the cover won't slide off easily once it is finished and placed on the glass.
