Construction Steps

Creating the Base: The tutorial begins with crocheting a flat circular base for the teacup.

The video shows how to make a series of single crochets and how to increase stitches in each subsequent row.

Forming the Cup Shape: After creating the flat circle, the video demonstrates how to begin forming the sides of the teacup. This involves crocheting single crochets at each stitch to build up the height of the cup.
Changing Yarn Color: The video shows how to switch to a different color yarn to create a two-toned teacup design. The last slip stitch of the previous row is completed with the new color to ensure a smooth transition.

Creating the Top Circle and Filling: A second flat circle, identical to the base, is crocheted to serve as the top of the pin cushion. The cup portion is then filled with cotton, padding, or a cut sponge. The top circle is attached to the cup with a needle and yarn.

Adding the Handle: A handle for the teacup is crocheted by chaining stitches, skipping one, and then single crocheting across the remaining chains. The handle is then attached to the side of the teacup.
