This rainbow sunflower-like mandala crochet would make a great coaster or decoration in the house. It has almost every rainbow color and is genuinely a joy to make. It is in the form of a YouTube video tutorial for all you visual learners.
Whimsical Pumpkin Coaster
How to crochet a whimsical pumpkin coaster that is perfect for Fall decorating or on the Thanksgiving table under some Pumpkin Spice coffee. You'll need 20 yards of worsted weight cotton yarn per coaster - I used WeCrochet Dishie for mine, but Lily Sugar n Cream, Bernat Handicrafter and Red Heart Smoothie are good alternatives. If you are only making a coaster that will house a cold or hot beverage, you can use acrylic as an alternative (like Red Heart Super Saver) with an I9/5.5mm hook - just do not put anything fresh from the oven on the acrylic coaster, or you will melt the fibers and risk burning yourself. I was able to work up one coaster in just over 15 minutes.
Sunflower Placemat
This beautiful placemat is made entirely in the round with a perfectly round circle. Video tutorial provided for both the round center as well as the petals. A perfect match to my previous designs - the Sunflower Potholder, Towel Topper and Coaster. A wonderful way to brighten up your kitchen, dining room and home! Make in sunflower colors or in any other colors to match your decor. Any petal colors would look lovely. Would also make a lovely table centerpiece or doily as well.
