Crochet enthusiasts are always on the lookout for unique and adorable projects to showcase their skills. If you’re searching for a delightful and functional item to add to your kitchen decor, look no further than the crochet giraffe bowl cozy.
This whimsical accessory combines the cuteness of a giraffe with the practicality of a bowl cozy, offering a fun and charming way to protect your hands while enjoying hot or cold dishes.
The Giraffe Soup Bowl Cozy is the 5th animal soup bowl cozy design; Currently we also have Moose, Lion, Bear, and Goat crochet patterns available.
You’ve probably noticed quite a few animals themed patterns from amigurumi to pot holders to these fun bowl cozies and that’s because it’s one of my favorite things to crochet, along with the idea of quick & easy projects.
This website rarely features advanced or expert level crochet patterns, because I prefer simple, fun, and functional!
So, when I was tasked with designing something I loved about crochet, I knew it had to be a fast & easy crochet pattern featuring animals!

Notes
- This pattern is worked with double strands.
- This pattern is worked from the bottom-up in the round. Only join where indicated.
- Beginning chains do not count as stitches.
- Optional: For deeper bowls, continue working the bottom section until it matches the height of your bowl. This is not necessary as the cozy will still cover the majority of the bowl, but is an option if you want the bowl completely covered.
- If you have trouble keeping stitches tight, go down to a J/10/6.00mm Crochet Hook.
