Crochet Basketweave Travel Mug Cozy - Tutorial - The Up North Home

Hey everyone, welcome back for another crochet tutorial. This is easy enough for beginners, but the detailing looks like it is very complex. I hope you all enjoy this video. Some tips: The chains in round one count as a stitch, after this round it will no longer count as a stitch, just a place to join each round. Also, after round 1, every two rounds are the same, so you can adjust your size by going in rounds of two's, for example, stop after round 5, or 7, or 9 for different heights. For different size cups you can also adjust the width by 6's to maintain the pattern, so you could try starting with 30 chains, 36 as I did, or go up to 42 for a large travel mug (like around 32oz mug or so). I hope this helps you out and feel free to ask questions, I will do the best I can to help you out. Also, you may notice my wedding ring on my right hand, I am actually left handed and have mirrored my videos for you guys. :)

Here is the pattern:
~Ch 36 and join.
~Ch 2, dc in each chain around and join.
~Rounds 2&3: fpdc for 3, 3 bpdc. Repeat around. join.
~Rounds 4&5: 3 bpdc, 3 fpdc. Repeat around. join.
~Rounds 6&7: 3 fpdc, 3 bpdc. Repeat around.
continue until desired height is reached, I did 7 in this tutorial.
