Buffalo Plaid.  It’s a beautiful thing.  And on this cold winter day, this crochet buffalo plaid cup cozy is just the thing. So put on your comfy clothes and your warmest sweatshirt and get ready to wrap your hands around this cup of goodness.Buffalo Plaid Cup Cozy

The Buffalo Plaid Cup Cozy is the perfect project for practicing your tapestry crochet skills.  The stitches are simple–just single crochets.  It’s the color changes that make this spectacular.  This particular project is worked in the back loops.  I just love the nice clean lines when tapestry crochet is worked in the back loops, don’t you?

Buffalo plaid is worked with 3 colors:  red, burgundy and black.  Black is easy.  Finding a red and a burgundy that are just right can be a challenge.  I love Vanna’s Choice yarn and think that the Scarlett, Black and Burgundy are the perfect mix of colors for buffalo plaid projects.  If you are trying to find colors on your own, its best to “audition” them at the same time so you can be sure they will work well together.

For this project, two colors are used in each row.  The non working yarn is carried along and crocheted right over.  Check out this post on how to tapestry crochet for everything you need to know.  This project is worked in joined rounds (joined with a sl st every round).  That way you are always working on the right side of the work, a key component of this back loop technique.
