Happy Vibes Cotton Coaster – Free Crochet Pattern

68Shares

The Happy Vibes Cotton Coaster was originally released on Ravelry back in August 2019. It was definitely time for a refresh to spruce it up! I’ve taken new photos, added more detail to the instructions and made sure it was up the standards of my current designs.

If you are familiar with the old pattern, you’ll notice one difference is the edging. I replaced the crab stitch with a traditional single crochet stitch to make this even more beginner friendly.
