Descendents coffee cozy
Graphing out Milo was the first self-made intarsia pattern I had ever done, but I never really did anything with him. Next to my apartment I get really good coffee for 50 cents, so I’ve been drinking a lot of it. I figured a knitted coffee cozy would help resolve the waste problem involving those little cardboard sleeves you put around your coffee because it’s too hot. My boyfriend (who is kind of a know-it-all yet has never held knitting needles in his life) tried to shoot me down and tell me a knitted coffee cozy would be nonfunctional and would still be hot. Guess what, it worked; but those of you who knit probably knew it would.

I need this pattern. Aren’t you putting a knitting zine together?

I am — I did a lot of it on the computer, then our laptop got stolen so I have to start all over again, but it will be out.
