I think a lot of Mom’s love receiving thoughtful handmade gifts and Mom’s love giving handmade gifts as well. This Mom Cup Cozy crochet pattern is not only a nice handmade gift but it is also a useful gift.
Crochet cup cozies can be used on to-go ups from various coffee shops or they can even be used at home on certain plastic or glass cups if you want to enjoy a cold drink such as a homemade milkshake or smoothie.
Mom Cup Cozy Pattern Details:
Knowledge of tapestry crochet is highly recommended for this design. But there are notes within the pattern that are helpful to those who are somewhat unfamiliar with this crochet technique. The pattern does include written instructions for each round as well as a graph that can be followed.
I think that the color combinations for this design are endless. Use a solid yarn for the main color and a variegated color yarn for the lettering or just stick with using one of your mom’s favorite colors for the main color.
