Dimensions of Starbucks to-go cups?

Question

I saw a really cool idea to crochet coffee cozies (instead of taking a cardboard one everytime you get coffee.) Since my friends and I are really big coffee drinkers (not always Starbucks, but I'm guessing that their cup sizes are pretty standard) I was thinking that cozies would be great stocking stuffers for Christmas. Maybe.

Anyway, I want to make a cozy that could fit the Tall, Grande OR Venti cups - it seems to me that they're the same size in the middle, but that the cup gets taller (not wider) as the size increases.

Does anybody know for sure? How wide are they (median width I guess?)

Answer 1

Great idea Catkid.  If I were you I would take one of the sleeves and use it as a template for the cozies.  Even though the cups are all different heights, they all use the same sleeve, so I would guess that they would all use the same size cozy.

cool idea! you should market those or something... starbucks might sponsor you (maybe)... different colors... if you have coffee so much you can just take a leftover cup or ask for an extra or something as a model... you can find the dimensions of a circle by doing equation: area=pi*radius-sqaured, or A=(pi symbol)(radius-little 2) hope i helped!
