Picot Flower Doily Coaster

Add a splash of color to your dining table with this Picot Flower Doily Coaster. I am definitely a fan of Crochet Coasters. I love making them. Crochet Coasters are quick to make and they are absolutely apt for using up your small bits of yarn stash.

Cotton yarn is always preferable for making coasters. I call this Picot Coaster as I've used Picot Stitch for the border which gives the flowery look. These would be a great for your home décor and they also make great gifts for any occasion. You can add them along with a Gift Mug or gift them as it is.
