JoyAnn's Bowl Coaster

A pretty and happy, generously large coaster, you can make it in the suggested color, or to coordinate with what you have.
It is meant to be used under small bowls. If you serve to your guests bowls of soup, bowls of salad, etc., this is the coaster that will make them look pretty!

Materials:
Red Heart pretty 'N Pink (1 skein if you are going to make many of these, if only a few, scraps will do)
Crochet hook size G

Note- I used acrylic yarn because you can throw it in the wash and it does not shrink, but if you prefer cotton, use that instead.
