Product Details
A friend at work has been teaching herself to knit and recently learned how to purl. She asked me to design something she could use to practise. Something small but simple, that would be quick to make so she would get an instant high when she finished it and want to make something else!!
After a little discussion we agreed on a coaster.
The coaster features a very simple pattern using -
garter stitch - knit every stitch on every row reverse garter stitch - purl every stitch on every row double rib - K2, P2
You can follow the pattern exactly as written to make a square coaster or work some extra rows for a wide coaster so there’s room for a mug and a biscuit!!
I used double knit and 4mm needles, but you could make it with aran for a slightly larger version, or 4 ply for a smaller one - unless you want to play with the number of stitches of course!! You need 3 sts for each edge and a multiple of 4 sts for the main pattern.
