Knitted Round Coaster

I found this while looking for something else but decided this would look cute in Orange representing a pumpkin pie.  I have posted the site in case you want to visit.

I knitted mine in orange as in Pumpkin Pie but you can use any color you like for your coaster.

Materials: Left over worsted weight cotton yarn

Size 6 (US) Knitting needles.

Coaster size is about 5 inches in diameter.

Directions:

Cast on 8 stitches.

Row 1: (wrong side) Knit

Row 2: K2, yo, K2, turn (4 unworked stitches on left needle)

Row 3: K5

Row 4: K2, yo, K5, turn (2 unworked stitches)

Row 5: K8

Row 6: Bind off 2 stitches, K7 (all stitches worked)

Repeat rows 1-6 (16) times, for a total of 17 wedges. Do not bind off.

Cut yarn, leaving a 10-12" tail for sewing. Sew the "live" stitches on the knitting needle to the cast-on stitches of the first row. Using yarn needle, draw a running thread through the stitches of the inside circle to tighten up the center circle

Enjoy!!!!

hugs...love... & blessings

You can make into a cloth by adding more stitches to cast on. You may want to increase the border stitches to 4 on each end and increasing the pattern stitches to 27 +1 + 8 border = 36 stitches.
