Freeze Pop Holder – Free Crochet Pattern

My kids love having freeze pops throughout the summer. I made these crochet freeze pop holders to keep their hands from getting to cold! I love that I don’t have to rewrap a paper towel around their ice pop a dozen times before they’ve finally finished eating it!

The best part about these crochet freeze pop holders is that they are completely washable. I love the colors and my kids have been using these same freeze pop holders that are shown here for the last couple of years and they are still in great shape!

Pin this pattern for later.

Don’t forget to save this free crochet freeze pop holder pattern in your favorites and add it to your project queue on Ravelry!

Tips & Tricks

• Have a freeze pop close by so that you can ensure that the brand of freeze pops that you buy will fit in your crochet freeze pop holder.

Alterations

• If you need to adjust the width of your crochet freeze pop holder to accommodate a larger or smaller popsicle, you can adjust the pattern by 2 stitches.
• For example, if you wanted a wider freeze pop holder, you can add an additional 2 stitches to your increases rounds at the beginning of the pattern, and all other steps will be the same thereafter (with a total stitch count of 22 sts instead of 20 sts).
