Whip up this mug cosy in an evening as a useful last minute gift. With some simple short row shaping and the option to add an intarsia heart this is a great project for practicing those new skills.

Each mug cosy uses approx 10g of Piccolo (sport weight) with a 3mm needle. Perfect for using up leftover bits of yarn.

Stitches:

  • K ~ Knit
  • P ~ Purl
  • SL ~ Slip stitch purlwise, yarn held to back.
  • W&T ~ Wrap and turn - slip next stitch purlwise onto the right hand needle. Bring the yarn between the needles to the front, then move the slipped stitch purlwise back onto the left needle. Turn to work back along these stitches only.
