I can’t think of many things that are cozier and more comforting than a hot cup of coffee on a chilly autumn morning.  Imagine being wrapped up in your favorite chunky blanket or sweater, warm cuppa cradled in your hands, while you watch the morning sunrise over crisp autumn leaves.  Doesn’t that sound amazing?

Now you can capture some of that comforting feeling with this new pattern: the Crochet Cuppa Joe coffee keychain pattern!  

Working up in under an hour, and using less than 30yds of yarn, this project is a GREAT scrapbuster that works up well in a variety of colors and yarn weights.  Want a keychain sized cuppa?  Use the recommended 3.5mm hook and 4/worsted weight yarn.  Hoping for a squishy plushy or pincushion?  Try it using a 4.5mm hook and 5/bulky weight yarn.  And if you’d like something a little larger, why not try a 7mm hook and a 6/super bulky yarn?  The possibilities for this pattern are endless!
