Blossoms Cup Cozy

Hello Lovelies!!!

It’s been a minute since my last blog post! It has been so busy over here in my world and I can’t believe that we are in the middle of March already.

Between having surgery, Christmas and many appointments over the last few months, 2023 has been a blur. It feels like winter has lasted a lifetime and never wants to end. Even looking outside today, there is still a ton of snow on the ground and are mostly in negative temperatures but, we are seeing some low plus temperatures and hopefully we will continue to stay in plus temperatures over the next days and weeks.

I have been trying to will spring to come and stay. Wearing brighter colours, crocheting with brighter colours and openly talking about what I want to do with my garden this year! I’m actually getting quite excited to get out into my garden and watch all the new growth and blooms that will happen. I quite enjoy watching how plants grow and change through the season.

Are you ready for Spring??

This pattern, is the Blossoms Cup Cozy. The stitches remind me so much of tulips when they are in full bloom. I can’t help by smile when I look at them and even though it has been snowing and cold, I have been using this cozy every time I go to a coffee shop, which isn’t super often as I limit how much coffee I consume each day.

This pattern is a super quick and adorable to make. Get a really cute coffee/tea tag and it adds the perfect finishing touch to this pattern. It’s a great quick make, almost instant gratification! It’s kind of a perfect project to do in between those bigger projects.

Are You a Coffee or Tea Drinker?
