Until now, I had always used a folded paper towel every night to set my drinks on. But now I have these awesome coasters...handmade, too! I (again from Pinterest!) found this great link: http://colorncream.blogspot.com/2014/08/flower-coaster-tutorial.html to a pattern and knew immediately I wanted to make them. The lady was very friendly in the transaction on Etsy. She has an English version of the pattern. I personally prefer the look of the coasters without the scalloped edge, but they're cute either way. In her link, she uses very bright and fun colors. I don't typically decorate that way, I'm more traditional and mute in color around my house, so I opted for more neutral yarn colors. I used sugar n cream 100% cotton yarn. And the awesome thing is I won't be wasting paper towels anymore, and I can just throw these coasters in the wash and they're clean. It took me maybe 2 hours to do the set I created. Thanks for looking!
