Hooker Leo has a cute coffee cup square motif that was made for an afghan but could be used as a cloth. The Coffee Lover’s Dishcloth by Louise Sarrazin is another great choice and includes a sentiment we can all get behind (“must have coffee”).
If you know double knitting, the Coffee and Tea Potholders from Elizabeth Evans are great, and will protect your table well since they’re really thick.
Lina Wolf’s Coffee Cup Coasters are great little projects for using up leftovers (they’re double knit as well) or try Melanie Thompson’s simple coaster pattern.
Keep your French press warm with this cabled cozy pattern from Mindy Lewis, or try a stash-busting striped vest for your coffee by Carol Galton.
And what about your coffee mug? Keep it cozy with the Crown Coffee Cozy form Just Crafty Enough, Charlotte Dunning’s Coffee Lover’s Favourite or the adorable Owl Coffee Cup Cozy from Sabrina Thompson, among many others.

Coffee and knitting are both beloved pastimes that have been enjoyed by people all over the world for centuries. Both offer a sense of comfort, relaxation, and creativity.
Coffee is often associated with early morning wake-up calls, providing a much-needed boost of energy to start the day. The warm, comforting aroma and rich flavor of coffee can be a soothing experience that many people enjoy. Additionally, coffee has been known to have health benefits like reducing the risk of heart disease and type 2 diabetes.
Knitting, on the other hand, is a relaxing and meditative activity that allows people to focus on the present moment. The repetitive motions of knitting can be calming and therapeutic, helping to reduce stress and anxiety. It also allows for a sense of accomplishment, as knitters can create something tangible from yarn and needles.
When combined, coffee and knitting can make for the perfect pair. They can be enjoyed together during a morning coffee break, or while winding down at the end of a long day. Knitting while sipping on a warm cup of coffee can be a great way to relax and create something beautiful at the same time. Plus, there are a number of knitting patterns that are coffee-themed, like cozy coffee cup holders, or tea cozies that can be a fun way to show off your love for both coffee and knitting.
In short, coffee and knitting are both beloved pastimes that offer a sense of comfort and relaxation. They can be enjoyed together to create a perfect combination of warmth, focus and creativity.
