Crochet a Little Mug

IMG_1239

This little mug is a great accessory for your handmade stuffies. Made with worsted weight yarn, this finished mug measures approximately 1 inch tall.

Abbreviations:

ch: chain

sc: single crochet

sl st: slip stitch

inc: increase (2 single crochets in one loop)

dec: decrease (pull yarn through loop, pull yarn through second loop, yarn over and pull through all loops)

Materials needed:

Any worsted weight yarn. I used Red Heart Super Saver in claret and café latte.

G (4mm) crochet hook

Poly-fil

Yarn needle

Plastic canvas (optional)

This pattern is worked “in-the-round”, and stitches are worked through both loops unless otherwise noted. 

Liquid:

With café latte, ch 3. Sl st to first ch to create circle. (Instead, you can perform the “magic circle” if you’d like.)

Row 1: ch 1, 10 sc inside of circle. (10 stitches)

Row 2: *Inc in first stitch, sc in next stitch, repeat from * around. (15 stitches)

Row 3: *Inc in first stitch, sc in next 2 stitches, repeat from * around. (20 stitches)

Tie off.

Mug:

With claret, ch 3. Sl st to first ch to create circle. (Instead, you can perform the “magic circle” if you’d like.)

Row 1: ch 1, 10 sc inside of circle. (10 stitches)

Row 2: *Inc in first stitch, sc in next stitch, repeat from * around. (15 stitches)

Row 3: *Inc in first stitch, sc in next 2 stitches, repeat from * around. (20 stitches)

Row 4: In inside loops only, sc in each stitch around. (20 stitches)

Rows 5-7: Sc in each stitch around. (20 stitches)

Don’t tie off. Insert plastic canvas in bottom to keep it from bulging. Stuff with poly-fil. Holding liquid over top, sc around both mug and liquid.

Handle:

With claret, ch 10, leaving a long tail. Tie off, leaving a long ending tail. Use tails to sew onto mug.

This mug looks adorable with my little green monster pattern, but would work for other stuffies as well.
