Materials
Worsted weight yarn – cotton works best (it’s easy to wash, and won’t melt like acrylic will when heated)
Note: Even though these are washer- and dryer-safe, I’ve noticed that the colours fade when they’re put in the dryer, so it’s probably best to air-dry.
Size I (5.5mm) hook
Note: I crochet tight and had to use a larger hook size to fit a standard size coffee cup. The circumference of my first 3 rows measures about 8″
Pattern
Ch 24. Slip stitch to 1st ch, being careful not to twist chain. Working in continuous rounds:
Row 1-3: Sc around (24 sc)
Row 4: 2 Sc in first st, 1 sc in next 11 sts, 2 sc in next st, 1 sc in last 11 sts (26 sc)
Row 5-6: Sc around (26 sc)
Row 7: 2 Sc in first st, 1 sc in next 12 sts, 2 sc in next st, 1 sc in last 12 sts (28 sc)
Row 8-9: Sc around (28 sc)
Row 10: 2 Sc in first st, 1 sc in next 13 sts, 2 sc in next st, 1 sc in last 13 sts (30 sc)
Row 11-12: Sc around (30 sc)
Row 13: 2 Sc in first st, 1 sc in next 14 sts, 2 sc in next st, 1 sc in last 14 sts (32 sc)
Row 14: Sc around (32 sc)
Pattern Notes
These cozies look really good with multicoloured yarn. Or, try a striped effect by changing the colour every few rows, or 3 colours (A for row 1-6, B for 7-12, and C for 13 & 14). Decorate your cozy with buttons or crocheted flowers.
Here’s a standard 5-petal flower that I like to use:
Sc 5 into a magic ring. Sl st to first st.
*Ch 3, 3Dc into first st, ch 3, sl st into same st. Sl st into next st.
Repeat from * in each of the next 4 sts. Finish off.
