I was knitting the Christmas Tree Row Cloth, by Maile Mauch. Find her exquisite patterns here. I thought that one tree would make a great mug rug design for the holidays. I knit a few and e-mailed Maile the pictures and pattern. She very generously allowed me to share the pattern on this site. The mug rug (coaster) works up fast and a few tied together with a ribbon or wrap would make a great little gift for a friend.
Here is the pattern...
