The Specs:
Skill Level:
-Easy/Moderate but recommended to watch a youtube tutorial on double knitting in the round and tubular bind-off if you have never done it before.

+Color A 12g/25yds(23 meters) -Malabrigo Rios 100% Superwash Merino Wool
+Color B 12g/25yds(23 meters) -Malabrigo Rios 100% Superwash Merino Wool
+US size 6 circular needles with 9 inch cord, size 6 DPNs or the two circ method.
+Tapestry Needle
+Stitch Markers (I like to keep mine at every 8 stitches with a larger or brightly colored marker for start of row)
+Highlighter to draw on the colorwork chart as you go for easy row tracking
Gauge:
18 stitches and 26 rows = 4 inch square
Notes:
-Coozy is worked in one piece in the round.
-Use a 2 color alternating cast on and do not include it in your row count.
-Double knitting in the round is achieved by alternating stitches in order to work both sides of the fabric simultaneously. So in this pattern that means every odd numbered stitch on the chart is a knit and every even numbered stitch is a purl.
