Perfect Coffee Cozy Knitting Pattern
Today’s cup cozy knitting pattern is very easy and quick to make! I love to make these as gifts to give with a coffee gift card or a new cup. They are definitely an instant gratification project!
I originally made these in 2016, but I wanted to update the blog post a bit and share it once again. It’s great for the holiday season!
Because this is one of my older, straight forward patterns, it never was made into a PDF for Etsy or the library. So you will just have to use this one here on the blog below. Okay – onward!
Since I made a crocheted coffee cozy pattern, I thought I’d go ahead and create a knit version as well. I just love the texture on this one! It’s always nice to try new stitch patterns especially when you can make something useful at the same time. This fits the bill if you’ve never tried double seed stitch.


This pattern is nice because you can make the cozy as large or small as you need. Simply knit until it’s the correct width. I’ve written my pattern for a standard Starbucks cup.
It’s a great, eco-friendly way to keep your coffee warm and your fingers from burning. It’s also pretty darn cute, no?
The pattern is easy (like most of my projects of course), so get out your needles and yarn for this quick knit!

Tapestry Needle to weave in ends

Row 1(RS): *K2, p2; rep from * to end
Row 2: *K2, p2; rep from * to end

You can also measure around your cup in case it’s larger or smaller! Just knit for fewer or more rows to adjust the size.

Happy knitting to you!

Do u have a cozy that would for a mug with a handle?
Unfortunately, I don’t right now. Check out Pinterest, I’ve seen several floating around there!
Is there a way to knit this using circular needles to avoid having to sew a seam?
I imagine it would be super easy to do a magic loop method (that’s my plan). I don’t even own dpns because magic loop works so well for me. Just google it for a youtube tutorial.
I love this pattern and have adapted it to DPNs. I like to save patterns as both paper and pdfs so I can refer back to them, especially if I lose my paper copy. However, when I print/save as pdf, ads block the instructions. Can you, please add a print-friendly version? Thank you for this pattern.
