Finished Size:
~12”L x 2.75”W
Materials:
▸ Yarn: #6 / Bulky Weight yarn (or 2 strands of #4 / Worsted Weight yarn held together throughout) ▸ Yardage: ~50 yds (or 120 yds )▸ Hook: 6.0mm▸ Other: 1 Button (size varies depending on size of buttonhole you choose) ▸ Scissors, Darning Needle, Stitch Markers
Stitches & Abbreviations:
US Terminology ▸ * * – Repeat stitch pattern between * ▸ Ch# – Chain the number noted ▸ SS – Slip Stitch ▸ SC – Single Crochet ▸ DC – Double Crochet
Notes & Special Instructions:
▸ If you plan to microwave contents of the cup with the cozy on, you need to make the cozy with 100% cotton so it won’t catch fire. ▸ For a smoother edge this pattern is written without a Ch1 at the beginning of each SC row. Simply make your 1st SC a little looser than normal to make it easier to stitch into on the next row. If you prefer to do a Ch 1 at beginning on those rows, it will NOT count as a stitch. ▸ Total number of stitches per round/row in (#) at end. ▸ This pattern is worked in ROWS. You will TURN your work at the end of EVERY row. ▸ I tend to crochet TIGHT, so you may need to adjust your hook size to accommodate.
