Starburst: A Transforming Motif for Coaster, Centerpiece & Mandala

A single, versatile motif that grows with you — from a quick, giftable coaster to a bold table centerpiece or a striking mandala. This PDF keeps the teaching direct: clear round-by-round written instructions are the focus, plus practical motif-placement guidance so you can join, scale and style with confidence.

The pattern is written in USA crochet terms. There are 9 pages to the PDF. Gauge isn’t important as it depends on yarn used.
