Weave in all ends. Sew the two ends of the cozy together, edge to edge, to make a circle.
Do not twist. Now sew the cross band together edge to edge over the seam on the cozy
making the main part squash together to give the appearance of a bow. Fasten the cross
band to the cozy so it does not slide or the cross band turns its seam outward. If you have
made a pocket, sew it onto the cozy as shown in the picture on the front page.
Enjoy your new coffee cozy.

the pattern for pocket on the plain cozy.
Weave in all ends. Sew the back and front of the cozy together along both the long sides
with the smooth sides of the stockinette stitch facing each other. Squish the front cozy
slightly together as it is a little longer than the back. This will make cozy into a prettier circle.
Turn the resulting tube inside out and sew the two short sides together edge to edge, making a circle. Now sew the cross band together edge to edge over the seam on the cozy making the main part squash together to give the appearance of a bow. Fasten the cross band
to the cozy so it does not slide or the cross band turns it seam outward. If you have made a
pocket, sew it onto the cozy as shown in the picture on the front page.
Enjoy your new coffee cozy.
