Introduction to Crochet/A set of coasters



Coasters are one of the simplest crochet projects to make.

Materials

 * Size G hook
 * Cotton yarn in two colors

Procedure

 * Chain 16 stitches.
 * Single crochet each row(on the first row ,crochet your first stitch into the second chain)until the item is square, about 18 rows.
 * Switch to contrasting color. Half double crochet around the entire border.
 * Work in loose ends.

Repeat until the desired number of coasters are complete.

The pictured example is displayed in a paper mache box. For a simpler way to complete the project as a gift, make a long chain stitch in the border color and use it to tie together the coasters in a bow.
