With Memorial Day on Monday I was in the mood for a red, white and blue project. I wanted to do something small that everyone would enjoy so I decided to make these fun star shaped coasters.
These coasters are quick and easy to make so beginners can enjoy this pattern too. I also made a helpful video tutorial which you can crochet along with if you prefer.
I went with a red, white and blue theme, but these coasters would also look great in other color schemes such as brights, pastels, or different shades of one color. Whatever color you choose they are sure to look great on your table.
You might also enjoy my Color Splash and St. Tropez cotton sun hat patterns.
