I’m a huge coffee addict and love anything that has anything to do with coffee, latte art being one of them. This idea of making a latte art coaster has been in my head for a long time. I’ve attempted this project many times and always ended up failing but I finally made a pattern and I’m pretty happy with the results.
Like I said, I failed to make this coaster many times but I finally came up with instructions that I think make sense and look like an actual 2D cup of coffee with latte art. To get the color change perfect (a constant struggle in the world of crochet) I cut off after I finished using each color and used slip stitches and chains accordingly.
