This Coffee Cup Sleeve is a waffle stitch design. Which is fairly simple and like most of my patterns it is worked flat and then stitched up on the side.
This will be a fun way to get used to using the waffle stitch pattern before you try it out on a blanket or even as a dishcloth.
Try not to think of waffles while you are crocheting it. It’s a pretty easy stitch but you have to remember that each row is the opposite stitch from the row that you just worked. So if you worked a dc, the next row you will make a fpdc in the top of that one. and if it was a fpdc, then you are working a dc into the top of it. Good luck and I’d love to see your finished Cuppa Cuddlers.
