Cozy Textured Mug Cozy

Materials:

Worsted weight cotton yarn (approx. 50 yards, light gray)
Size 8 (5 mm) knitting needles
Yarn needle for weaving ends
Scissors

Gauge:

16 stitches and 20 rows = 4 inches in garter stitch. To check your gauge, knit a swatch of 20 stitches wide and 20 rows long. Measure the swatch to ensure that it matches the gauge. If your swatch is too small, try a larger needle. If it’s too large, try a smaller needle.

Abbreviations:

k: knit
st(s): stitch(es)
BO: bind off

Instructions:

This mug cozy is knitted in a simple garter stitch, which means you’ll knit every row. Follow these steps:

Cast On: Cast on 40 stitches using your size 8 needles.
Rows 1-12: Knit every row (40 rows total). You should have a total length of about 4 inches.
Shape the Cozy: To make it fit snugly around your mug, we will reduce the stitches. Follow this pattern:

Row 13: K2, k2tog, knit to last 4 stitches, k2tog, k2.
Row 14: Knit all stitches.
Row 15: K2, k2tog, knit to last 4 stitches, k2tog, k2.
Continue this pattern (knitting every second row) until you have about 28 stitches left (a total of 23 rows).

Finish the Cozy: Bind off the remaining stitches. Leave a 12-inch tail of yarn for sewing.
Weave Ends: Use the yarn needle to weave in all loose ends. Make sure the cozy fits snugly around your mug, and you can adjust it if necessary.
Optional – Blocking: If you want a neater finish, lightly block your cozy by wetting it and laying it flat to dry in the required shape.

Finishing Tips:

Make sure to keep your tension even throughout the project for a consistent look. Changing your yarn or needle size can alter the cozy’s fit. For different sizes, simply adjust the number of stitches cast on. Enjoy your warm drinks without the worry of burning your hands!
