Pattern: Mandala Coasters

So I’ve been obsessed with mandalas lately and had a bunch of cotton yarn I wanted to use so I made some cute mandala coasters! These are really fun and easy to make. I used a free pattern from Ravelry. Instead of making the entire mandala I stopped after round 4 and they are the perfect coaster size. I used Lily Sugar’n Cream Cotton yarn and just mixed the colors with each coaster.

Materials: 

Lily Sugar’n cream cotton- 4 colors

Crochet hook size 2.5mm

yarn needle

Pattern: Newborn Beanie

I spent a lot of time crocheting newborn hats when I was pregnant with my second daughter. I wanted to share the super easy pattern! All 5 of these hats are the same pattern with different things added to them. You can see in the picture that the hat with the bear ears is a bit bigger because the yarn I used is a bit chunkier. I used bulky 6 for it and bulky 5 for the other four hats. So, I recommend using a 5 if your making for a newborn and 6 if its for an older baby.
