Starbucks Coffee Cozy

     I often get coffee from this famous coffee chain every now and again.  Maybe you've heard of it? It's called Starbucks.   They have great coffee, but although I like my coffee hot, sometimes their little brown cardboard sleeves just don't do enough to mask the heat when holding it.  I went online to look for a pattern to crochet one, with no avail.  So I decided why not make my own!

Needed:
Size K Hook
Cotton yarn (for better shaping)
Worsted Weight yarn (for thickness)
Tapestry Needle

Directions:
**You will be using both strands of yarn together throughout the whole pattern**
Round 1 - Chain 25.  Join with slip stitch into 1st chain.  Make sure to not twist the chain so it is a true circle.

Round 2 - Chain 1, sc in next stitch and all the way around, join with a slip stitch into beginning chain (24 stitches)

Round 3 - Chain 2, dc in next stitch and all the way around, join with a slip stitch into beginning chain (24 stitches)

Rounds 4-6 - repeat Round 3

Round 7 - Chain 1, sc in next stitch and all the way around, join with a slip stitch into beginning chain (24 stitches)
Finish off and work in ends with tapestry needle.
