Crochet Eight Petal Coaster



Crochet Eight Petal Coaster
These make great coasters.  Use a coarser choice of yarn. When completed stiffen with a 50/50 mix of crafting paste and water. Soak, squeeze out the excess and block it into shape. Let it dry naturally. Super easy.  Super effective.  Makes a great gift.  Crochet six and gift wrap.  Great for using up left over yarn.
