Mugs of hot cocoa
7:37pm on the 29th of January, 2008

Three hot little treats, one for each of The Team.

Made with various wool yarns, mostly Peace Fleece.
One more pattern today! These darling little mugs of hot goodness were created to be the exact scale of my cookies. Make a quick, easy, & fun gift set for kids!
This is an advanced beginner pattern.
You’ll need:
Worsted weight yarn (cotton, acrylic, wool is my personal preference) in colors for the mug(s) & small amounts of scrap yarn for the cocoa/tea/coffee as well as scraps of white or undyed yarn for the marshmallows, if desired
Hook size G
Stuffing (wool roving or polyfill)
Darning needle
NOTE- Do NOT join rounds!
Making the mug-
Round 1: With mug color, 8 sc into a magic ring (8 sc).
Round 2: 2 sc in ea st around (16 sc).
Round 3: sc in 1st st, 2 sc in next st (sc in next st, 2 sc in next st) around (24 sc).
Round 4: sc in the first two sc, 2 sc in next st, (sc in next 2 sts, 2 sc in next st) around (32 sc).
Round 5: sc in each st around (32 sc).
Round 6: sc in the BACK LOOPS ONLY of each st around (32 sc).
Round 7 through 11: sc in each st around (32 sc).
Round 12: sl st in each st around (32 sc).
Finish off & weave in ends.
The handle-
Leave a tail & chain 12. Sc in 2nd chain from the hook & completely across. Ch 1, turn, & sc across. Finish off.
Making the cocoa/tea/coffee-
Round 1: With cocoa/tea/coffee color, 8 sc in a magic ring (8 sc).
Round 2: 2 sc in ea st around (16 sc).
Round 3: sc in 1st st, 2 sc in next st (sc in next st, 2 sc in next st) around (24 sc).
Round 4: sc in the first two sc, 2 sc in next st, (sc in next 2 sts, 2 sc in next st) around (32 sc).
Finish off leaving a long tail (about 9 inches or so) to sew to top of mug.
Finishing-
Attach handle to mug at rounds 7 & 11.
Stuff mug somewhat firmly. Lay cocoa/tea/coffee over the top of the mug & sew them both together. You could also take your hook to fasten the pieces together. To make marshmallows, simply take some undyed or white yarn & embroider 3 ‘mallows to the top of the cocoa with 6 to 9 small horizontal stitches.

Next in crafting- how to make felt heart-shaped cookies!
