EASTER COASTER - SPRING CROCHET - FIVE PETAL COASTER - Free Pattern

Do you like to play?  and have fun?   Do you like to play with yarn and hooks?  then join me here each week and we will have some crochet fun.  

I am going to share some brand new, never seen before Barbara Summers designs, some have been hiding in the bottom of the crochet projects box, and some are being designed on the spot as I crochet and write the blog.  So gather your yarns and hooks, get yourself a cuppa, and let's play, let's have some crochet fun!

I know Easter is just around the corner, and so is spring, therefore, this my first design is a light, bright, spring feel, Easter coaster.  Although you could also use it in other ways too.  Which we can discuss later after we have made one, two, three, or more.

Let's play - shall we?   


WHAT YOU NEED:  

Yarn:  Wendy Supreme Luxury Cotton Dk or similar DK yarn
