Let's make a Springtime Coaster Set

This is a pretty set of coasters that look like flowers!
These are made from 100% cotton and are crocheted in the round. These coasters only have 5 rounds so they work up quickly. Make a set of 4 - 6 and tie with a pretty ribbon for a thoughtful gift for yourself or someone you love!


Here is the link to the FREE pattern at Ravelry and if you aren't on Ravelry you can also download it directly from the designer, Doni Speigle's blog here.

www.ravelry.com is a wonderful fiber community where you can keep a notebook of your projects and so much more! You can find me as conicuts on Ravelry!
This is a 5 part video series. Enjoy!

Scalloped Crochet Edge

Video showing you how to add a scalloped crocheted edge to your next dishcloth, loomed or knitted project.
This scalloped edge is worked in two rows, the first row all around is just single crochet. The next row will be your pattern that makes the scalloped edges.

ch = chain
sc = single crochet
dc = double crochet
st = stitch

Rnd. 1.  Start by working single crochet stitches all around your dishcloth by making holes about 1/4" apart. Work 3 sc's in the corners. You will end back at the corner you started on. Join with a slip st to first sc. ch 1

Rnd. 2.  Sc into same sc as slip st, ch 3, 4 dc into same sc as slip st, skip next 3 sc, sc into next sc, * ch 3, 4 dc into same sc as last sc, skip next 3 sc, sc into next sc. Repeat from * all around then join with a slip st to first sc.
