Crochet nesting cups

par Lorajean’s Magazine For my tutorial I am doing three crocheted nesting cups. I am super excited to share this pattern with you! It is super easy so even beginners can make these. They are great for stashing those random nick knacks, or, dare I say it, sewing notions! *gasp* ha ha! :) They are so cute, and fun for kids too. My 6 year old daughter keeps asking when I’m making hers so she can store all her trinkets too. :) The pattern is basically the same for each cup. All that is different is the number of starting stitches and rows for each size. To add pattern I made stripes by changing colors after a few rows.

Materials Here is what you need to get started • Hook size: I used US H 8 / 5.00mm • Yarn: medium 4 weight in three different colors Here is a key for all the abbreviations I use: dc = double crochet ch = chain sl st = slip stitch beg = beginning rnd = round LETS GET STARTED Ch 4, join with a sl st to form a ring. Rnd 1) ch 2 for first dc, *7dc in ring, sl st to top of beg ch. *8 stitches, counting the ch2 = Sm 10 stitches, counting the ch2 = Med 12 stitches, counting the ch2 = Lg Rnd 2) ch 2 for first dc, 2 dc in each dc, sl st to top of beg ch.
