By Jigs that's a clever idea! :D The cost of pencil lead is a heck of a lot less than printer ink! We get so caught up in technology that we forget the simple solutions sometimes.
I'm a little puzzled about why the whole tutorial would have to be printed out though. For anyone who actually does want to print out the pattern anymore after reading Jigs' money saving solution, if you click the download button right under the leaf pattern, then you get just the pattern on one whole page.
That is a really sweet Mug Rug Poem. ;) If you haven't already, you should add it to one of the two Mug Rug Poem /gift tag topic pages!

I think it would be really neat to include the poems with mug rug gifts. And it's fun to make up your own too.
