Coffee Cozy – Free Crochet Pattern

Summer can be a busy time (especially if you are a mom, home with the kids), and you might not always be able to find time to crochet. Don’t let the day get the best of you, carve out a little time for yourself! Crochet will relax you, and give you a sense of accomplishment!

If you can barely find the time to crochet, maybe what you need is a small, quick-to-work-up project to get the gears moving! Today I’m sharing a free coffee cozy crochet pattern. Something you can finish in a night, or commit 5 to 10 minutes a day if that’s all you have.

One of my favorite things about this coffee cozy crochet pattern is that it’s a scrapbuster! Use a rainbow of colors, or whatever last bits you have lying around…I love using an “anything goes” palette sometimes! Choosing just 2 contrasting colors really gives a fun zig-zag stripe, seen in the green and black version.  I used a cotton yarn, but acrylic yarn would work just as well.

The palette of this denim blue coffee cozy is perhaps more suited to a decaf drinker? “Decaffeinated Coffee Cozy” lol!

Have fun with it! I’d love to see pictures of what color combos you come up with, so don’t forget to add the crochet pattern to your Ravelry queue and share!
