Free pattern: Bunny Egg Warmer

Today I have a free pattern for you.:)

Easter Bunny egg warmer/cozy.

To make these cuties you will need:

~ scraps of yarn (I used worsted weight)

~ Hook F/3.75

~ embroidery floss

~ tiny piece of felt for the nose

~ scraps of fabric for the ears lining

Lets make the COZY first.

Round 1 : Ch2,6 sc in the 2^nd ch from the hook. (6)

Do not join, place the stitch marker.

Round 2: 2 sc in each st around. (12)

Round 3: sc in each st around. (12)

Round 4: *sc in 1^st st, 2sc in the next st* repeat all the way around. (18) 

Round 5: sc all the way around. (18)

Round 6: *sc in the next 2 sts, 2sc in the next st* repeat all the way around. (24)

Round 7-11: sc all the way around. (24)

Round 12: crab stitch all the way around. Finish off.

The last round is optional, but I LoVe crab stitch (also known as “reverse single crochet” ! If you’ve never tried this stitch, you should :) Here is a great video tutorial. 

 Now let’s work on the EARS (make 2): 

 Round 1:CH9,  sc in the 2^nd ch from the hook, sc in the next 3 sts, hdc in the next 2 sts, dc in the next sts, 3dc in the last st; now working on the other side of the foundation chain- 2dc in the 1^st st(this stitch already has 3dc),dc in the next st, hdc in the next 2 sts, sc in the next 4 sts.

Round 2: sc all the way around.

Finish off. Repeat this to make second ear.

Now cut out the fabric for the lining and sew it to the inside of each ear.

I used crocheted ears as my templates, I placed them on fabric and traced around them with a fabric marker.

Now sew the ears to the cozy 

Add the  tiny felt nose and embroider the  eyes

And of course we can not forget about the cute bunny tail. 

And you are done! Hoo-ray! 

I wish everyone Happy Easter and Happy Spring! :) 

Cozy Mug crochet pattern with snowflake applique

The Christmas is around the corner, so I decided to share this fun and super cute mug cozy pattern with snowflake appliqué, which can be used by itself in so many ways- make a garland, ornaments, and other holiday decoration!

Make them for yourself, relatives, friends!

They are quick to make, so I am sure you will make them for everyone! :)

Materials:

F/3.75 hook for the cozy

B/2.25 hook for applique

#4/worsted weight yarn in the color of your choice

#1/super fine weight yarn for snowflakes

Button

Yarn needle

Measurements:

In this pattern I use my mug as an example, but please feel free to experiment as your cup might be bigger or smaller than mine.

Also you can use worsted weight yarn and F hook to make snowflakes. But please keep in mind that in this case they will be bigger.

Abbreviations:

Ch – chain

Sc- single crochet

Sl st- slip stitch

Dc – double crochet

PS- puff stitch

Special Stitch:

Puff stitch- ***Yarn over, and insert the hook into the appropriate stitch***repeat two more times. You will have 7 loops on the hook. Yarn over and pull through all 7 loops***

Pattern:

Chain 53 stitches. This number can be different-less or more depending on the size of your mug.

Just wrap it around the base of the mug to make sure it fits snuggly.

Row 1-2:ch1, sc all the way around. Join with sl st.

  

Now you will be working not in rounds, but back and forth.

Row 3: Ch1, sc in next 47 st, skipping last 5 stitches, ch 1, turn.

Row 4-12: sc in each st around, ch1, turn.

Complete as many rows as you need to cover your mug.

Now work sc all the way around the opening.

To make a button loop, make as many chain stitches as you need to fit the button (in my case I needed 10) and make a slip stitch into the first chain stitch.

Finish off. Weave in ends.

Optional: Join contrast color yarn and sc all the way around.

Snowflake applique:

Row1: Ch1, Magic ring, 7 sc inside the ring, join with sl st.

Row 2: Ch3,[PS(Yarn over, and insert the hook into the appropriate stitch***repeat two more times. You will have 7 loops on the hook. Yarn over and pull through all 7 loops), ch3] repeat 6 more times. You should end up having 7PSs divided by ch3 space.

Row 3: {Ch3, dc in the 1^st PS;***ch3 and sl st into the first chain space (this makes first picot), repeat two more times to make two more picots.

Then make st sl into the base of the first picot to make one big picot

out of three.

Then ch3 and sc into the chain space of previous round.}

Repeat this 6 more times.

Finish off.

Make as many snowflakes as you need and sew them on to your cup cozy.

Sew the button on and enjoy!
