Materials
- 4.5mm hook
- 25 – 30yds of yarn (Base color)
- 2yds of yarn (Tree color)
- Optional: 1 Festive Button
- Optional: Sewing Needle
- Optional: Sewing Thread
Notes:
- We will be working in joined rounds, which means you will slip stitch and chain one at the end of each round.
- These are US terms
Directions
- Chain 35
- Create a loop by slip stitching into the last chain from your hook, then chain 1
- 1 single crochet stitch in each chain around, slip stitch to the start of the round, and chain 1
- Repeat the last step until you have 10 total rows.
Pause here, test the fit on your cup of choice. If it’s too small, you can go up a hook size and start again, OR start with a bigger starting chain in step 1. If you’re happy with the fit, continue to step 5. - Slip stitch snugly in each stitch of the last row. This will be the bottom of the cozy. Test the fit on your cup again. If you’re happy with the fit, cut yarn and weave in the tail.
- Attach to the top of the cozy with a slip stitch. Then, one loose slip stitch in each stitch of the row. Test your fit. If you’re happy with the fit, cut yarn and weave in the tail.
- Using approx 2yds of your tree colored yarn, thread a yarn needle so that the yarn ends meet.
- Stitch a zig-zag pattern up the cup cozy, getting smaller as you go. Weave in the remaining yarn tail and trim any excess.
- Optional: Add a star, jingle bell, snowflake, etc. to top your tree. Even a heart or flower shape could work.
- You’re done!
