Hello Internet Crafters!
I’m back with a free crochet pattern that’s perfect for stash-busting, especially if you find yourself with a lot of bulky yarn leftover from hats and scarves and gloves this time of year.
I personally am unable to part with any yarn scraps. It just won’t happen, because there HAS to be something I can do with it! And there is. Duh, coasters!
I don’t think you could ever have enough at home. Coasters also make cute stocking stuffers for the holidays, or they’re great additions to coffee-themed gift baskets. And to top it all off, they’re SO easy and quick to make! Especially if you’re using up your stash of Lion Brand Wool-Ease Thick & Quick like me. π
These coasters worked up in under an hour and they were SO easy to make. They’re a great instant gratification project too – I’m in the middle of a few big projects, and it feels so good to be able to finish something small and quick.
