  5. They are really cute. I was crocheting waiting at a Dr. appt. and everybody thought they were great. Of course I told them where I got the pattern. I Hve a problem I can't get them to lay flat. I have made like 8 or 9 and they all want to curl up. My grandmother taught me how to crochet when I was 4 yr. and that was a long time ago. I just wich I knew what I was doing wrong.
    Thank you and God Bless

  8. I loved making these cute little coasters. As a mother of 3 little kids, I don't have a lot of time for crochet, so projects like these are perfect for me. I'm going to make a bunch of them for christmas gifts this year. Thank you for sharing the pattern.

  9. To Debbibearz

    I would suggest using a hook 1 size bigger (you may crochet tighter than I do). This may help alleviate the curling.

  15. Im having trouble understanding tying the toes together part..

  16. Hi there - there is no right or wrong way to get the toes sewn together as long as you keep them as tidy as possible. I used a tapestry needle and used the outside tail from the circle (not the circle) to stitch them together.  I used a quick whip stitch between 2 stitches on one and on the other. Hope this helps - if not, just reply to this comment.

  18. I am looking forward to trying these.  What a great idea.  I am always checking to see where to put my spoon.

  19. Thanks! I am still using the ones in the picture :) They hold up great and work like a charm. If you make them and post a picture anywhere, do let me know. I'd love to see them

  20. Love this idea.  What is the finished diameter of the circle?

    ReplyDelete
  21. The main circle is about 4-5 inches in diameter.

  23. I like this pattern and would like to crochet it but I don't have a half reem of paper to print all of these comments.  Does this pattern appear somewhere as a pdf?  Thanks

  24.  I have not put it into a pdf; however, you should be able to highlight only the pattern text and then go to File/Print and make sure "Selection" is selected before you hit the print button. A good recommendation though. I should get all of my patterns as pdfs.

  25. I just did a print preview, my printer gives me option of selecting what pages i want to print, and printed only those pages

  26. Love the pattern it looks awesome! I'm making coasters for an auction we are holding at my work for donations to a former co-worker's family (co-worker passed away, we're raising money to help them with costs of the whole thing). Would it be alright if i made these up for that? I will give credit, i hate taking credit for work that isnt my own

  27.  I think it would be a FANTASTIC reason to make some of these coasters :)

  28. I crochet looser than most people. Example:  When I pick up my mother 's crochet project I have to use a smaller hooker.  I will tryit with a smaller hook .  Thank you fjor your help.  I have been trying to pick out which coaster to putin open class for the fair. If I get one of these done it time.  I will put it in the fair.  I''l let you know how we did.
