Take your Thermal Stitch coasters to the next level with this brand new pattern!

The Thermal Stitch creates a nice, thick fabric that is perfect for coasters. When using cotton yarn, the coaster will protect your wood furniture from liquids. These 4 multi-color designs really show up nicely with the color changes and carried yarn! Choose between the solid front and back or a design on the front with a solid back.

These coasters make great gifts for many occasions! Choose the recipients’ favorite colors, or their home or kitchen colors, for a thoughtful gift! This is a great project to use up scraps of yarn!

IMPORTANT NOTE: Knowledge of how to work the crocheted Thermal Stitch and how to change colors is required to crochet these coasters.
