Valley Yarns Safe and Warm are adorable cabled mug cozies knit in Haydenville DK. Choose from two different cable patterns to show your support of Safe Passage, an organization that provides support, resources, and assistance with safety planning for survivors of domestic violence. What a great way to show your love.
These cozies are a quick and simple handmade gift that everyone will enjoy and use! The mug cozy is knit as a single strip with garter stitch edging. Haydenville DK has a gentle sheen and crisp stitch definition that’s ideal for cables and colorwork. This machine-washable yarn is excellent for this project! The cable patterns are charted and written out. This pattern is only available as a PDF download!
