Crochet Heart Mug Cozy it’s cute and easy to make.
Valentine’s Day is as perfect time to make this little Crochet heart coffee cozy. I can’t believe how time flies when you’re having fun. Here is a quick and fun little crochet project. I have been trying to come up with ways to use up my extensive yarn scraps. (I admit I hate to throw away partly used skeins of yarn). . It is fun and easy to make. They work up so fast you can make one for every special person in your life. It uses very little yarn. You could also reverse the colors and make the cover white and the heart red. It’s really up to you.
Learn how to make simple graphs without fancy software. First a disclaimer: I am not a professional artist. As if that wasn’t obvious. However I can draw some basic things. I love seeing all the crochet and knit projects using graphs. I used to do some cross stitch needlepoint back in the day so I am familiar with following a graph. Making your own simple graphs is not difficult. I am technology challenged. I still do so much stuff the other fashioned way.. using a pen and paper. Here is how I made the heart graph to use in my Valentines Day square.
A Crochet Heart seemed like a fun project to make . Valentine’s Day is just around the corner. I wanted to make a project to go with that special day of love.
During this last couple of months I have been busy making blankets for grandkids. I was starting to look around for a blanket I could make for my granddaughter.
I didn’t want the regular blanket. I wanted to come up with something cute and that says how much I love her. This might be the answer. My square is almost ready. I just need to sew in the yarn tails.
