Pattern Description:

This pattern is a fun, functional and versatile project to hold your beverages. Designed with a comfortable, sturdy handle. It also has a little pocket, within the handle, to carry small items and keep your hands free. This design was meant for those enjoying social time, at home or work; or while you go about your day. It’s great for any occasion and can be customized in many ways. There are options to add unique character, advertise, or make it one of a kind, these suggestions are mentioned at the bottom of the pattern.
