Sorry about the poor pic.Pattern above is for a basic cup. To make the "M" I did the optional rw 10. There are numerous ways to decorate it. I just showed one way.

This is my first pattern I have made public. I hope it is something you can use. I use mine for my knitting and crochet needles but the possibilities are endless.
