Make Your Own Red White & Blue Cup Cozy


Super Easy Beginner Crochet Project for Any Time of the Year!
Make these for all of your guests!  Like my Red White & Blue Bangles, this cup cozy is super easy. 
  
Supplies: 
  • 100% cotton yarn (use your leftover yarn from another project)
  • Crochet hook - J
  • Buttons, iron on patches, ribbon (any embellishment)

Pattern:
  1. Chain 15. 
  2. Single crochet into 2nd stitch from hook. 
  3. Single crochet until end of chain. 
  4. *Chain 1 and turn. 
  5. Single crochet each stitch above, but only crochet the back stitch This will produce the ribbing effect.  
  6. Repeat from * until it measures 8 inches. 
  7. Fold the cozy in half with the last row and the first row together and slip stitch closed to form the cozy.


NOTE: 
You are crocheting sideways - as if you were to turn the cozy on it's side.  (I hope this makes sense.)  This tan organic cotton cozy only crocheted 11 stitches instead of 15, making it better for smaller glasses/cups.

((Shhh ... I'm sending this red, white and blue cozy to one of my best customers - I think she'll like it.))

I always have a few drink cozies in my ETSY shop if you'd rather I make them for you.
If you have 2 minutes, please vote for my beverage cozy on CraftJuice.

Email me here if you'd like me to make them for you - any color, any theme.
