Sizing
Each pattern offers two variants: a cozy to go around a French press coffee pot, and a square(ish) teapot mat. The coffee cozy is sized to fit a 4-cup pot, approximately 10 cm (4 inches) in diameter, and each pattern provides details on adjusting for a different size. The teapot mats are around 19 cm (7 inches) square, and can also be adjusted.
Difficulty Level
Each pattern is designed to be beginner-friendly, and quick to make.
