Wait, don’t toss out those old sheets and other scraps of fabric!

Yes, this is a fantastic upcycling project. Not only will you save money by making your own yarn out of fabric that otherwise might wind up in the landfill, but you’ll have some unique and beautiful coasters! Great for your home and for gifts, too!

Sure, these days we can buy all kinds of yarn, from T-shirt yarn to fabric yarn, but it’s really easy and cost effective to make your own! With this wonderful and free pattern and tutorial from designer Kara of Petals to Picots you’ll learn a valuable technique plus you’ll have some fabulous crochet coasters for your table!
