  • These double crochet coasters are a perfect base for mugs, small pot plants, candles, and more.
  • Make a set of six and team them up with a matching small crochet basket for a handy storage container.
  • Make them in neutral colors, bright colors, Halloween colors (orange and black), Christmas colors (red, green, and gold), or in colors to match your decor.
  • Give them as gifts or make them to sell at craft fairs.
