The Hint of Love Cup Cozy crochet pattern is easy and works up quickly! It is also easy to customize, adjusting the colours and size.

This crochet cup cozy is worked using basic stitches such as single crochet stitches and slip stitches.  It is also worked in a worsted weight cotton yarn.  Ive used the Eco Cotton by Loops & Threads, but if you do not have this particular yarn on hand, there are many other great worsted weight cotton yarns that you may use as a substitute!

The Hint of Love Cup Cozies are worked first in rows of slip stitch ribbing for the body.  Once the ribbing is worked, you will work an easy edging around the top and bottom.  In one of the samples above you will see that I used two different colours of yarn, however the design looks pretty even in the solid colour.  To make the solid coloured ones stand out just a little more, I added a delicate heart charm.

Enjoy! And if you enjoy this cup cozy design, you may also wist to check out the Round About Cup Cozy Crochet Pattern or the Earl Grey Cup Cozy Crochet Pattern.  Both are easy to work designs!
