Spoked Coaster
Designed By Julie A. Bolduc
This coaster uses a technique I really like to do a lot. And you will find it in other patterns I have designed. I work some of the stitches behind a chain loop. You could make an unlimited number of color combinations and make a whole bunch of these to give as a gift in a gift basket. They are fast to make and you could make several in an evening.
