How to Crochet a Basic Cup Cozy





My crochet cup cozies are fun and quick to make! I like to use pretty yarns and decorate them with a motif or vintage button(s). Worsted weight yarn in wool or acrylic works best with a 'G' hook.

Chain 28, make sure the chain is straight and join to form a circle, chain 2
1st row: half double crochet(hdc) 28, join front loop only top of chain 2, chain 2
2nd row: double crochet(dc) back loop, dc front loop to total 28, join through both loops of chain 2, chain 2
3rd row: hdc 2, 2 hdc's in next stitch, hdc 12, 2 hdc's in next stitch, hdc 12, join back loop only top of chain 2, chain 2 (30 total)
4th row: dc front loop, dc back loop to total 30, join through both loops of chain 2, chain 2
5th row: hdc 9, 2 hdc's in next stitch, hdc 12, 2 hdc's in next stitch, hdc 7, join front loop only top of chain 2, chain 2 (32)
6th row: dc back loop, dc front loop to total 32, join through both loops of chain 2, chain 2
7th row: hdc 14, 2 hdc in next stitch, hdc 15, 2 hdc's in next stitch,1 hdc, join through back loop only top of chain 2, chain 2 (34)
8th row: dc front loop, dc back loop to total 34, join through both loop of chain w and finish off, weave in ends.
