This crochet cup sleeve pattern is designed for take-out coffee and tea cups. It is shown here on a large cup, but it should fit any cup from medium to extra large. If making it for a small cup you might want to reduce the pattern by one round.
I used a medium #4 worsted weight cotton yarn, but any other cotton should work just as well. If you decide to use a thinner or thicker cotton, you can adjust the circumference in any multiple of 4 to fit your cup.
Beg Cl: Ch 2, yo and insert hook into same st/sp, yo and pull up a lp, [yo and pull through 2 lps] twice.
CL:[Yo and insert hook into st/sp, yo and pull up a lp, yo and pull through 2 lps] twice, (3 lps on hook) yo and pull through all 3 lps.
