Hi friends,

Are you having a BBQ or picnic for the 4th of July? Or maybe you just want a new cup cozy for Summer? This easy Crochet Patriotic Cup Cozy works up so quickly that you can make one for all of your guests to take home with them after the party. 🙂

It’s a super easy pattern using half double crochet stitches. The white section is worked in the 3rd loop to give it a little more texture. (Here’s a great tutorial on crocheting in the 3rd loop.) I used I Love This Cotton yarn with a G/4.0mm hook to stitch up my cozies.

Here’s the pattern along with a link to a free PDF for easy printing.
