Crochet Flower Coaster Tutorial

I love having coasters for my drinks or giving them away as gifts. I uploaded a video if you need more assistance with this fun pattern. Create this Coaster with an H hook and Medium Worsted yarn and it measures about 4 inches by 4 inches. You can use a larger hook or thicker yarn for a larger coaster.

If you tell others about my work, please only link back to my blog, but don't copy my patterns to your site. Also you can sell anything you make from my patterns, but don't sell the free pattern. Thank you!
