Assembly / Finishing
Fasten off, leaving a long tail for sewing. Weave in all ends. With the long tail, sew the button securely onto one end of the cozy, approximately 2-3 rows down from the top edge. The button will secure the cozy around your mug by slipping through the spaces in your crochet work on the opposite end.
Tips
Remember to crochet a gauge swatch to ensure your finished cozy fits your mug snugly. If your cozy is too loose, try a smaller hook size. If it's too tight, try a larger hook size. The cozy should stretch slightly to fit around your mug.
