Mug rugs have got to be one of the cutest things I’ve seen this year. They’re quirky, fun, quick and easy to make, and make great gifts. What’s not to love? Today I’m sharing a free moss stitch mug rug pattern with you, including a YouTube video tutorial to make sure you have everything you need to make these for yourself! This is the first in a set of three Mug Rug patterns that I’m bringing your way this month, so make sure to check back for the next two weeks to get the whole set! The whoel Mug Rug Trio is also available as a printable PDF.

How to Make the Moss Stitch Mug Rug
- ch24
- sc in 4th ch from hook, *ch1, sk next st, sc, repeat from * across
- ch2, turn, sc in ch1-space, *ch1, sc in ch1-space, repeat from * across
- repeat row three 21 more times or until mug rug reaches desired length (without tassles)
- finish off, weave in ends.
- Attach fringe to each ch1-space on both sides (12 ch1-spaces/side) (To attach fringe, take two strands of yarn together and pull the center of the strands through the ch1-space, then pull the tails of the yarn strands through the loop and tighten – see video demo)
