Free Pattern – Hot Geek Coffee Sleeve

Our local coffee shop has recently started selling reusable coffee sleeves as a way to get people to stop using the cardboard throw away ones. After seeing that they charge about $5.00 a piece for them I figured I could easily whip some up from scrap yarn. There was a lot of interest in this one I made for Matt so I thought I’d share the pattern.
8 - Hot Geek Coffee Sleeve
The design on this sleeve is binary code & spells out “hot” across each line. Its great for computer geeks (like Matt) & always a bit of a conversation starter when we pull it out at the coffee shop.

2 colors of scrap worsted weight yarn (I used Paton’s Classic Wool)

With background color cast on 74 stitches. Divide the stitches between evenly between three needles. Join together being careful not to twist, placing a maker between the last & first stitch. to mark rows.

Work 6 rows in p1k1 ribbing.

Work the binary code chart twice. Make sure to wrap yarns when changing colors to prevent holes.
