This is a pattern I modified from the pattern for Owl Mitts by Ms Erika Ward. http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/owl-mitts-6

I loved the simplicity of her pattern and with her permission typed up this modified version for a mug cozy.

I had made her mitts and fell in love with the pattern. It was simple and concise. I always wondered if I could turn it into a cozy. I had seen several patterns around for paid designs but while I appreciate the work that goes into those, I wondered who would pay for a simple design that was already free but set up for gloves. Once I figured out how to make it cozy friendly, I wanted to share with you. Now I have.

Please be sure to credit Ms. Ward with the pattern design if you ever sell items from it. But most of all, enjoy!
