Table Of ContentFelted Snowflake Coasters and Cuff
from Knit Picks
These felted projects are designed for streamlined knitting and felting for
holiday decorating and gift giving. Several repeats of the coaster design are
knitted in the round so that you can make several at a time.
After you cast-off the round, felt the whole thing, and then you
can easily cut each coaster.
A second round of felting finishes off the cut edges.
The coffee cup cuffs are knit in the round one at a time on
DPNs, but if you use two circular needles, you can knit two at
the same time.
COASTERS
Each coaster requires 28 stitches. This includes the buffer
stitches for cutting between the coasters. Once you have
decided how many coasters you want to knit, multiply that
number by 28 and loosely cast on those stitches. Four coasters
fit nicely around a 24” needle and are a nice number for gift
giving. Join the round, being sure not to twist the stitches.
Knit rows 1-33 of the Coaster chart. Cast off loosely.
As you knit the colorwork, weave the contrasting yarn along the back as you Finished Size:

It is very important to cast on and off loosely so that the top and bottom
edges felt as evenly as possible. Yarn:
