Looking for a great gift for a coffee lover in your life? Try this easy Beginner Knit Mug Cozy, knit flat and seamed. Pair it with a mug and some coffee and you’re good to go!

I designed this mug cozy with a cotton worsted weight yarn (category #4) for great protection from hot mugs. You can use any yarn you like, from acrylic to cotton, as long as acrylic yarn doesn’t get too close to a heat source (which it shouldn’t as a mug cozy).

This pattern is worked in 2 pieces and seamed. First, you crochet 2 square motifs (there is a video tutorial to walk you through) and then you work single crochet on one side of each motif.

Finally, you seam them together to create a round mug cozy that fits a travel mug or cup and add a round of single crochet to the top and bottom.
