Pattern Notes
-Find the yarn value pack used for the samples here!
-If you’re using a yarn substitute, I recommend choosing a yarn with a high cotton content to ensure durability.  
-These coasters are crocheted using two strands of yarn held together. Feel free to use two different colors or two strands of the same color, or substitute for one strand of a heavy worsted/bulky yarn.
