With the 4th of July just being a little more than 2 weeks away, I’d thought that this cup cozy crochet pattern would be perfect to add a little patriotic color to your drinks! This size cup cozy will fit perfectly on most regular 16 oz to 24 oz sized cups depending on the cups shape of course.
I chose to use a special stitch for this cup cozy called the “Star Stitch!” I thought that was a very fitting named stitch to use! Finished the cozy off by adding a Reverse Single Crochet border to the top and bottom of this cozy, but you can leave the border off if it’s not your thing and still have a cute cup cozy!
I used Lion Brand’s 24/7 Cotton yarn for this cozy. I’m in love with this cotton yarn! It’s probably one of my favorite cotton yarns that I’ve ever used and it holds up very well!
