Wrapped in Stars Mug Cozy free crochet pattern

Wrapped in Stars Mug Cozy

When my best friend asked me to make her a mug cozy for her to use while drinking coffee, I knew I had to make something special just for her. She is definitely a star and one of a kind. The mug cozy will protect your hands from the heat of a coffee or tea mug while offering a soft and comforting touch.

SPECIAL STITCHES

Star Stitch – This great tutorial Moogly Blog explains how to create the star stitch.

NOTES

  • Read through the pattern before starting the star stitch pattern and pay close attention to the positioning of your hook. You will always insert your hook into either the chain, a stitch or post of stitch, wherever specified, and pull up a loop.
  • The height of your mug cozy will depend on your mug and your preference but must always end with a row of sc.
  • You may change colors at the end of each sc row.
