Summer is here! I have been working on a few smaller projects recently, mainly because of the heat, and this free crochet mug rug pattern was one of them.
This is such a quick and easy pattern and I love using such bright colors. The mug rug would also make a great gift by changing up the colors to fit any decor.
This is a great project to practice color changing in crochet. The only stitches that are used in this free crochet mug rug pattern is a chain, sc(through front loop) and slip stitch. A quick and easy project that would be a great stash buster.
