I recently saw a picture of the side saddle stitch and wanted to try it! It’s a really gorgeous stitch and once you have it memorized its pretty straightforward. I decided to make a beanie out of it and will be adding it to my craft market stash! Here is a good video tutorial if you need a visual. The only difference is we are turning our work and working in the round instead of going back and fourth in rows.
Materials:
Worsted Weight Yarn, I used Loops & threads urban yarn in oatmeal.
5mm Crochet Hook
Yarn Needle
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.

Lily Sugar’n cream cotton- 4 colors
