Whip up a quick and easy holiday gift with this pattern for the Basketweave Knitted Mug Cozy. Pair with some coffee and a mug and you’re good to go!

I wanted this project to work up quickly so I knew I wanted a chunky or super bulky yarn. I have a lot of Color Made Easy in my stash (and I’m trying to use that stash up before the new year!) so I decided it was a match made in heaven.

The pattern for the Basketweave Knitted Mug Cozy is super simple. It’s just a combination of knit and purls with two stitches on each side as a garter stitch border.

You will work this pattern flat and work two tiny seams at the end using any seaming method you wish.
