It’s the Holiday Season and it is time for a crochet simple snowflake coaster pattern. Make one in less than 30 minutes and that includes sewing in the yarn ends.
Just four rounds and a bit of yarn and you’re done. I prefer cotton yarn for this project as it holds up well to various cups and glasses. These are perfect to use all Winter long. We love getting them out during Christmas time.
