Have you ever wanted to knit a flat circle? Maybe even a seamless flat circle? Then this coaster is your answer!
This fun coaster set is worked seamlessly in the round, starting from the outer cast on edge, and decreasing to the center. The decreases are carefully placed to produce a circle without visible wedges. Seeds are sewn on using basic embroidery for the apple and watermelon. Instructions to make this coaster are written out once, along with an explanation of which rounds should be worked in which colors to create the different fruits. It is 3 patterns in 1!
Knitting in the summer heat can be uncomfortable when your project is meant to be used in winter. This is designed to be a quick summer project that can easily be completed on a warm evening. This is a great project to use up your cotton scraps. Combined with my Wild Strawberry Coaster pattern, you can make a fun set. This is a quick knit that makes a great gift!
Skills Necessary: Working in the round, k2tog, color changes, stretchy cast on
