I like my coasters in single crochet cotton. I think it makes them really absorbent (because who wants that icy glass to get water all over your tables). If you are like me, nothing quite says summer like watermelon. The days get longer. It's time for bare feet, shorts and sunshine. And when you head to the store, there is the most enormous box of whole watermelons that you've ever seen and then you know… you know… summer is truly here. If you liked my citrus coasters, you might just like what I've got for you today.. crochet watermelon coasters!
