Christmas Tree Mug Rug Free Pattern

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...

Pine Tree Bookmark

Pine Tree Bookmark designed by Annette Derksen

This is my first ever completed bookmark. It was the October KAL of the Monthly Bookmarks Knit-a-long Group. What a fun design! This bookmark was done in a pretty cinnamon color cotton (I think #10) that I got from an Elmore-Pisgah grab bag. I'm not sure exactly what size it is because there was no label. It was great to knit with and I'm sure I'll be knitting a few more of these gorgeous bookmarks as gifts. Visit here for her free pinetree bookmark pattern. - thank you Annette
