on the facebook page I gave a preview yesterday of strawberries and coasters
a new adventure
may be you remember I got this pretty yarn from my sweet friend Molly a few weeks ago
well, I got out a crochet hook and this is what happened....
I wanted to use the three balls of yarn for one project
and they became coasters!
three different colors allow for six unique color combinations
with hook size five it did not take me too long ~ which I always love of course, easy and fast
so a new set was born
and the good news is : I wrote out the pattern and will post that here soon so you can all enjoy
making a quick and lovely set yourself !
~
but ... it is getting even better ...
after making six coasters, there was more yarn left
and I made a matching basket for them
and yes, I also wrote out a pattern for the basket
yay !
thank you again very much Molly for the beautiful yarn in these great colors
I had so much fun making this little Spring set and as you can see, it made perfect use of the yarn
~
I hope you get as much in Spring mood as I did after looking at all these images
absolutely darling, maaike. i knew you'd do something clever with the yarn, and you proved me right. love the coasters, the sweet basket, and your beautiful photographs. well done, you!
