4. Fuzzy floral coffee sleeve with a gift card pocket
Perhaps you’re making a coffee sleeve as a gift for your favourite java lover? We adore this soft, fuzzy bunched up pattern for how cute it looks, but we also love its card pocket! Place a gift card in there when you gift it and then when your friend uses it later they can keep there coffee points card in the pocket to get points each morning! Get the pattern on Clover and Violet.
5. Felted sleeves with hard seams
Are you looking for something very simple and chicly unfinished looking? These little felt sleeves by Purl Soho keep your drink warm and your hand cool. They also feature the seams on the outside in an intentional way that looks rather Boho chic, if you ask us.
6. Big buttoned cozy for a thick, layered mug
Some people use coffee cozies so that they don’t have to buy a thick, insulated mug to keep their coffee warm, but perhaps you live in a very cold place that needs both! In that case, this thick transport mug sleeve by Lisa Clarke might be right up your alley!
7. Patterned necktie coffee sleeve
Do you love projects that upcycle and repurpose things that you already have rather than buying materials specifically for a small DIY project? Lime & Aqua has the perfect tutorial for you! These make a really cute Father’s Day gift.
8. Gingham, lace, trim, and a button
Do you like the idea of a coffee sleeve but want to make one with a little more quirky character? We love the mix of materials and textures on this little coffee cozy by Seela Made! You could choose any pattern of fabric you please if gingham isn’t your style.
9. Reversible button-up coffee sleeve
What’s better than making yourself something that essentially gets you two things for the price and effort of one? We sure can’t think of anything! Crafty Staci happens to agree, so check out this tutorial for making a simple buttoned coffee sleeve that’s reversible so you can choose two designs!
10. Double wide buttoning coffee sleeve
Have you had other coffee sleeves before that were too thin to really make a difference on either your hands or the temperature of your drink? Alyson’s Petals had the same problem. Check out how this extra wide sleeve is made so your drink can have a little extra insulation!

13. “Slingshot” style coffee cup carrier
