CROCHET MOUSTACHE COFFEE COZY:
Row 1: ch 8
Row 2: dc into each st, ch 2, turn at end of row {8}
Row 3-18: repeat row 2. dc into each st, ch 2, turn {8}
Sc around the entire cozy.

Cut a moustache out of felt and hot glue gun to the crocheted cozy.
All done!
Coffee Cozy Variations:
- To create a different look, insert hook into the back loop only.
- Wool, cotton, and acrylic yarns each give you a unique texture.
- Use different colors of yarn and make a completely striped version.
- You don’t have to stick with a moustache. Cut any simple pattern you like out of felt. Buttons and crochet flowers make pretty embellishments too.
- Instead of joining the ends, add a loop to one side and a button to the other. Now your cozy sleeve will fit onto your hot coffee mugs that have handles as well.
Tips and Tricks:
- When choosing new projects, always check the skill level needed, to be sure it’s a good fit for you.
- Crochet hook size can make a real difference in the size of your finished crochet items. If you tend to crochet quite tightly, it may be beneficial to go up a size. If your stitches tend to be loose, go down a size.
- Only have worsted weight yarn, but the pattern calls for bulky yarn? No problem! Just use two strands, held together.
- For easy washing, choose a cotton yarn.
Crochet cup cozies aren’t just for hot drinks. They work great for cold drinks too!
Give them a try and happy crocheting! If you love this crochet coffee cozy, please give it a five star review and share it of Facebook or Pinterest.
