It may be August, but many of us are starting to prepare for the holiday season and upcoming markets. This quick and easy Coffee Mug Cozy is perfect for stocking stuffers and your Craft Fair / Market table.
They can be made with any worsted weight yarn of your choice. However, I prefer and recommend cotton for its absorbency and how well it holds up after multiple washes.
You can adjust the length of the cozy by adding or removing rows, depending on how large of a cup you will be using it with. The width of the cozy, with suggested materials should measure approximately 3.5 inches.
Note on sizing: when you are measuring the length you will need for your cup, leave about 1.5 inches for the button wrap and room for the handle between the ends.
Also - How adorable is that button? I grabbed a pack of these on clearance a while back with no idea what I would use them for, but were too cute to pass by (I know you can relate) I was so excited to finally have a little project to use one on

Repeat rows 2 and 3 until desired length.
Ch1, do not turn - evenly space SC stitches along the length of the cozy, when you get the row of SC we started with, SC in the next 9 stitches, ch 20, sk1 sc, sc across.
Continue around the cozy until you get the first SC from the border, sl st to join.
Sew button between the last and second to last row of the pattern repeat - I suggest testing this placement first just in case you have to make any adjustments.
