Heartfelt Mug Rugs

Just a short post today to show off the coasters (aka mug rugs) I just finished. They really took very little time…less than an hour each.  What a perfect Valentine’s gift…cozy and heartfelt!

See, there’s a heart in the center.  I used one skein of Plymouth Yarn Company’s Gina wool yarn to make six of these.  I think I probably could have made eight, but it’s kind of a thing that I like things in sixes…my mom gives me a hard time about buying six place settings or a dozen glasses instead of eight. That’s just how I roll.

I love that they’re each different, but coordinate. You can find the pattern at FaveCrafts.com…but beware…it’s oh-so-easy to get sucked in and lose a whole afternoon to browsing those crafts. Or so I hear.

    I love these! Of course, everything knitted is a heart stopper. I don’t know what yarn that is, but I love colorways!

    Homemade gifts are the best because they are made with love. I love hearts anything, so these are so cute. Thank you for the pattern.

    We may have met by chance…but we become friends by choice.
