These crocheted cotton yarn coasters are the first of my 4 inch 85% cotton coasters that I have embellished. The embroidered vine design did not move well. The rings of red and black on white in chain stitch look awkward.
The four completed coasters in red and black.
This simple design with chain stitch on double and single crocheted coasters, moves well in the hands, and looks good.
Here are some 4 inch diameter coasters and a 9 1/2 inch trivet done in Premier Home 85%cotton, 15% polyester #4 yarn, made by Premier Home. I like the uneven mottled effects that they give, and working with them is fun. The stitches are all single crochet, double crochet, or treble crochet, with a size H hook.
Clockwise from the 11:30 o’clock position are: Flamingo Splash, Sahara Splash, Tangerine Splash, Olive Splash, Denim Splash, Violet Splash, and Honeydew Splash. The trivet is done in Ocean Splash. Of their “Splashes”, I am only missing Grey Splash.

So many cotton blends are available on the market, I am exploring those of Premier Home, right now. I like their bright colors, and some other aspects of their cotton blend #4 yarns. This is a record of their “Splash” yarns.
