Many people rely on caffeine to start their morning or to get them through the day. You can purchase many items that have the caffeine molecule drawn on them, shirts, jewelery and even coffee mugs. Show your chemistry power by knitting this caffeine cozy, and give it to your favorite Starbucks junkie.
The ribbing on the back of this cozy gives it some stretch so it should fit different sized coffee cups.

this is sciencetastic. one small question.. should there be 24 sts on the first needle (rather than 30), then 26 on the remaining two?
ReplyDeletethanks for the pattern :)
Alyssa,
ReplyDeleteThank you for the correction! You are correct, there should be 24 stitches on the first needle, and 26 on the remaining two (combined.) I have updated the pattern accordingly.
I have also updated the difference between Round 1 and Round 2. Sorry for the typo!
Have you thought about putting this in a hat? My 16 y/o step-daughter say this & thought it would be great in a hat... she surprised me in liking the molecule charts. Now to figure out ways to incorporate them into things that fit her EMO style. Suggestions anyone?
ReplyDeleteWell if any hat has a large stockinette section, it should be easy to incorporate a molecule with duplicate stitching.
