Tutor’s Suggestions

  • For a modern twist, alternate yarn colors every few rows to add a striped effect.
  • Use softer or pastel shades for subtle elegance, or bold hues for striking designs.

Tip

To keep your half puff stitches uniform, always check your tension and ensure you’re consistently pulling the yarn up to the same height for each loop. This will crochet an even texture across your coaster.
