In the fabric or the sweater, cut two rectangle of 10 inches by 4 inches.
Place them on top of each other, wrong side in, and sew them together on 3 sides. Cut out the corners. Return the piece to have the right side out.
Fold the edges of the opening through inside, and make a few hand stitches to close it.To attach the cover on the mug, you have to sew 3 buttons on the side. Then, you sew 3 loops with yarn on the opposite side.
