"I found a winning crochet pattern with this Flower Mug Rug and they make great stash busters and gifts too! I've crocheted a few Mug Rugs in the past, but I didn't like them because when I would set something to hot or something that created condensation, my crochet mug rug would be to light and would stitch to the bottom of my mug! So I would quickly stop using them. I always thought if I could just add some weight to the outside it would help this not happen so easily. So I tested this idea with some scrap yarn and I found if I added a row of DC's that it created a weakness point along the sides which combined with the weight of the flowers would prevent this from happening most of the time. As long as the mug wasn't to soaking wet from condensation. Which is exciting for me because as you know I LOVE flowers and Butterflies and I find a way to use them anytime I can. For this project you’ll need: HOOK: 5 mm hook or size H hook for the US YARN: I used worsted weight yarn, 4 ply US, 10 ply AU SIZE Measuring from one flower tip to the other, the is 8 inches or 20 ½ cms wide and length is 5 ½ inches or 14 cms. If this is to big for you then you can change to a smaller hook size, or do fewer rows in the middle section. ABBREVIATIONS (click on link to find tutorials) ch = Chain sl st = Slip Stitch beg = beginning SC = Single Crochet DC = Double Crochet YO = Yarn Over PS = Puff stitch Repeat what's in between * for rest of row."
