If you’re a knitter you will probably already have most of these items lying around your house. Since it doesn’t use a lot of yarn, this is a really great project for using up old yarn that you might have!

You Will Need (4 things)

  • Chunky Yarn
  • 1 Button
  • Size 13 Needles
  • 1 Tapestry Needle

Steps (4 steps, 30 minutes)

  1. 1

    Cast on 8 stitches
    Knit using garter stitch (knit all rows) until piece measures approximately 7 inches without stretching (if you have a mug you can use this for sizing – stretch the piece to check to see if it fits almost all of the way around)

  2. 2

    Sew button onto one of the ends of your piece.

  3. 3

    Using a piece of extra yarn, make a loop on the opposite end of your piece, and tie together to keep the loop intact

  4. 4

    Embellish the mug warmer in any way that you please! I used some pink yarn and a tapestry needle to create a heart shape
