Morning Mug Wrap

Well, these are a ton of fun.  This MUG Wrap Cozy is meant for your morning mug of coffee.  The Mug Wrap Cozy is a bit longer than a cup cozy, to accomodate the width of a breakfast mug. 

Most of these new designs are being made from my stash of Wool Yarns. They are easy to wash & keep ready for your next hot drink!  I hope you enjoy these new additions to my collection of Cozy's.

Granola Time...

Today was granola making day again!  You know how it goes - we are all in the kitchen mixing things & most of it ends up on the floor...?  Oh well, at least I know that's the day the floor gets cleaned!  It makes me feel good to fill our cereal container once a week with fresh cereal.  Oats, nuts, coconut, honey & dried fruit are a great way to start the day.  This time of the year I put pumpkin seeds, pumpkin & cinnamon spices into the mixture - yum!

Mug 'Wrap'

Yes, they are finally here! I've been wanting to do a Cozy Mug Wrap for the longest time. Everytime I make one that fits over the handle of the mug, it's a bit too high for my liking. This is a wrap around style that will button around your mug & the height of the Cozy shouldn't interfere with your lips! These Mug Cozy's are flexible enough to fit a few different mug styles. The button fits snuggly into the stitches & allows you to get it as tight as you need it to be.

Of course, this is a great way to decorate your morning coffee mug, differentiate your mug from the others in the office, & absorb the little sip spills that dribble down the mug - but it will also protect your hands from the heat of the boiling hot mug (if you are the type to hold on to the mug instead of the handle...?) However you use it, it's a fun addition to your morning addiction! Change up the color to be seasonal.

To clean, simply hand wash in warm water with a mild detergent and lay flat to dry in order to retain shape.

To-Go-Cup Cozy 'Wrap'

 This is one of my new 'wrap' designs for your To-Go-Cup. I have fallen in love with this idea & hope you enjoy it, too.  The Cozy simply wraps around your cardboard cup & the button fits snuggly through the stitches to adjust where you need it to.  The one in this picture is made from a Faded Denim Wool Yarn with a Coconut Button - very sustainable!!

I hope you enjoy this new style - It will match the new Cozy Mug Wraps that are coming soon.

Rainy Day Experiments!

Today is a rainy, dreary 'crochet day' - I've been experimenting with all the yarn stash & crochet needles I have!  I have recently fallen in love with any type of wool blend yarn.

This is a Shorty Bow Cup Cozy made from Royal Purple & Heather Gray Wool Yarns.  I really like this new bow & will probably make some more to add to this lonely creature!
