Pokeball Cup Cozy

This is the absolute last thing I am making for MobiCon. :p I got the idea from one of my favorite amigurumi site, All About Ami. She did a pokeball cell phone cozy which looked cute so I made a cup cozy. Here's something for the boys. :)


Materials:
Yarn: Lion brand Vanna's Choice in black
4.25mm Crochet hook
Red and white felt

B-day presents: Hunger Games Cup Cozy and Mouse Amigurumi

My friend, Becky's birthday just passed. I finished her presents a little too late but that's ok because she didn't realize I was going to send her anything anyway. :)

Present #1: Hunger Games MockingJay cup cozy

She loves the Hunger Games books and movie so I had her sister, Rachel, cross stitch a MockingJay for me to put onto a red cup cozy. I think it came out really well. :) I just hope Becky doesn't realize what we are doing because she saw her sis stitching the Mockingjay. hehe 



Present #2: A cute mouse amigurumi

Becky was born in the Year of the Rat according to the Chinese horoscope. And since her favorite color is red, I thought a cute little red mouse! :)  I used this Pocket mice free pattern.






He's so little! :) He fit right into the Starbucks tumbler I am sending as well. :) That's present #3. :)

I did do one modification to the pattern:
Feet:

chain 2
into 1st chain:
hdc, slip stitch, dc, slip stitch, hdc, slip stitch

I hope she likes everything! Happy Birthday!!

I thought I might try a little Pokemon. :)



My favorite pokemon are Pikachu and Jiggilypuff. I am a first generation pokemon lover. I haven't watched it decades! Crazy! :)

"MINE!" Cup Cozy / Sleeve

I made this because a friend always half jokingly says "Mine!" when there's something yummy around. But now every time I hear this, all I hear is the seagulls from Finding Nemo. :) See this clip if you don't know what I mean. :)

 

 

And without further ado, here is my cup cozy. :)



My Coffee!
It might not have your name on it but you have definitely claimed this cup of joe with this cup cozy. :)

Sorry, I am not posting a pattern. There are tons of free crochet cup cozy patterns out there. :) I am not posting what I did because it is just too confusing for others and there's a problem. :P Gotta get it fixed before I post it. :)

But look what I found. This is crazy! Someone actually crochet a Finding Nemo Seagull. :) I think he's very cute!

Felt Steampunk Gears Cup Cozy

Here's another item for MobiCon. I saw a pic of some gears on a pillow and thought it would make a cute cup cozy. I didn't know how much work it would be to cut out all the gears and to sew them on, but I think it was well worth it. :)




Sorry, there's not pattern for it. I took apart a paper cup holder from my favorite boba place and used that as a template to cut out the black felt. Then I cut out gears and sewn them on. To hide all the thread and stitches, I cut out a second black cup cozy and sewn the two together. The result is a nicely insulated cup cozy to keep those hot drinks from burning your hands. :)

Ripple cup cozy

I've always been partial to blue but I saw this picture of a flower and loved the striking contrast between the navy blue and white. But I cannot find the picture again. I have found some other beautiful pics of the same look.

And I loved that someone did a blue velvet instead of a red velvet cupcake. :)

Here is the cup cozy that came from these inspirational pictures.



I used a crochet ripple free pattern. It looks complicated but once you start, it is pretty easy to get moving. I added a ribbon so that it can be tightened to fit any cup.

 I should have taken a picture of it before I zipped it up so you could see the ripple effect but you can kinda see it here. You can also check out the pattern's website to see some beautiful blankets made from this same pattern. :)


Have a great week!

Crochet Mustache Cup Cozy

I couldn't sleep so I decided to crochet something quick and simple. :)  I saw a really cute crocheted coffee cup cozy that had a cute mustache on it. Crafting more steampunk themed cuties have surrounded me with staches so, what's one more. :)

The free pattern can be found here. I wanted the cozy to taper a bit so I used this free pattern for the cozy base and adapted it to my cup.  




Good night!
