This is a super simple pattern that's quick and easy to make. I use it either to make Christmas ornaments, or throw some catnip in there for a fun cat toy. I mean, hey, even cats need a beer every so often, right? Using a 3.75 mm hook and worsted weight yarn these mugs stand about 2.5 inches tall.
Mini Beer Mug
Starting in light grey yarn
R1: 6 SC in Magic Circle [6]
R2: Inc x 6 [12]
R3: (Inc, SC) x 6 [18]
R4: (Inc, 2 SC) x 6 [24]
R5: SC around in BLO [24]
R6: SC around [24]
switch to gold yarn (or dark brown if you're going for a stout or porter!)
R7-15: SC around [24]
switch to white
R16: SC around [24]
R17: SC around in BLO [24]
(Note, this is probably the only time you'll see this, but here is where you don't need to be super neat, if it's a little messy it's ok because it's the foam on the top of the beer)
R18: (dec, 2 SC) x 6 [18]
R19: (dec, SC) x 6 [12]
Stuff and use your hands to shape- flat on the bottom, evenly round throughout the mug.
R20: dec x 6 [6]
FO and bury the end (to do this you'll make a slip stitch, then cut the yarn. Using a yarn needle, go through each of the stiches in FLO, then pull tight. You'll have a bit of a peak, so go back through the center of the ring and through the project, out somewhere easy, and cut the end off)
For the handle-
Using light grey yarn, chain 11, turn, in second stitch SC to end, leaving a long tail to attach to the mug. I suggest attaching it where the color changes are so it looks even.
That's it! If only making real beer was this easy....
Fun pattern! Thanks for sharing.
