Some FAQ and answers:

Can I adjust the size of the Mug Cozy crochet pattern?

Yes you can! This pattern is written for a standard size mug. But you can just measure the width and lenght of your mug and then crochet the first piece (the rectangle) to those measurements.

What size yarn do I need?

I used #3 or light weight cotton yarn for this pattern. Around about 50g/100m. You will probably be able to make more than one out of the full 50g!

You can aslo used any size yarn you want! As this pattern is adaptable, you can even use mega chunky yarn.

If you’re in the USA or any other country, you can used something like Bernat Softee Cotton Yarn or Patons Grace Yarn
