Hello Friends,
This year I've been been making a conscious effort to purchase less new yarn for my crochet projects. So continuing in that vain, I'm excited to share with you another new project and pattern for two types of Granny Cluster Coasters - one round and one square. They are quick, easy and fun to make up, and of course, I had the yarn on hand.
Supplies Required:
- 4 - 5 balls of Bernat Handicrafter Cotton Yarn - this depends on how many coasters you wish to make and how many colour changes you wish to do. With 5 different colours of (5 balls of yarn) you could easily make 4 of each coaster, mixing and matching up all 5 colours
- Size 5.0 mm crochet hook
- Scissors
- Tapestry needle
Please enjoy the free written pattern and video tutorial where I show you how to convert, or square off, the round coaster into the sqaure coaster. As always, thank you for stopping by!
