You only need a small amount of yarn for this project, so look through your scraps! The coffee sleeve is worked in the round and uses half double crochet stitches (hdc), which go faster than sc. If you’re a beginner, this would be a good time to learn how to work picots (on the edges). Coffee Sleeves make great gifts and you can put any patch you can think of. Hobby Lobby and JoAnns have several. Or you can order patches on Amazon or eBay.
