Star Coaster

This post may contain affiliate links, which means I may receive a commission if you make a purchase using these links. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.

This star coaster is made using the entrelac method of knitting. No worries if you have not made entrelac before, though! The pattern is written and also includes a video of the full pattern. These neat little stars can also be used to make bunting, or even as appliques. Have fun with them!!

*Please note, it is easy to end up with a little hole in the center of your star. There is a tip in the video on how to avoid this, and a note in the pattern, but the video makes it much clearer. If you do end up with the little hole, just leave a really long tail when you finish your star, weave it down to the center and use it to close the hole.
