How to Loom Knit a Coaster Mug Rug

Why does your mug need a rug? Because they’re cute, quick and easy to make and you can make them from scarps. I am looking forward to a ladies luncheon so I can show off my Mug Rug in many different colors. They also make great gifts when you match them up with a really pretty or cool mug. Most importantly it’s another unisex project. You know that there aren’t enough knitting patterns for men. Here is another good one.

As always this project includes a step by step video tutorial. You can find it at the bottom of the post. I hope you watch it completely before starting the project.

The Video Tutorial

I highly recommend watching the video completely even before you collect your supplies. This advise is not to discourage you or make you think the project is too difficult. The reason it is stated is because knowing what to expect ahead of times makes the task of knitting the project easier and more enjoyable.
