Everything is better when it's cozy

It's absolutely true. A cozy sweater is better than not; cozy socks, cozy blankets, cozy mittens and hats (as long as they have style as well), cozy pillows, cozy phone cases...

And cozy mugs! or mug cozies, whichever you prefer.

I found this pattern the other day while I was looking around for something new and different to do; preferably something that wouldn't take up so much time and easy enough for me to figure it out without trying too hard. As it turns out, this is exactly what I was looking for.

It took me just under an hour to finish. I'm guessing that if you're the kind of person that actually knows how to crochet and isn't just winging it, you could get it done in half that time. So extremely easy (trust me! I don't have much experience when it comes to this sort of thing).

And, since I absolutely cannot take credit for this adorable little thing, if you're looking to make one yourself, 

micahmakes.com is exactly where you need to go.

And! This is my favorite part, I think. If you have friends or family that love coffee or tea (and I'm guessing you probably do), it's the perfect little gift. So great.
