Noughts & Croasters
Introducing Noughts & Croasters, also known as Tic Tac Toasters—a delightful set of double-sided coasters that are not only functional but also a fun activity for all ages! One side features whimsical noughts, while the other showcases charming crosses, making them the perfect addition to your coffee table or game night.
These coasters are fun to make, enjoyable to give as gifts, and provide a playful twist to your home décor. Their practical whimsy makes them an excellent choice for both casual gatherings and formal events. Why settle for ordinary coasters when you can indulge in this creative and interactive alternative?
When creating your Noughts & Croasters, feel free to experiment with high contrast in hue, value, or intensity for a vibrant appearance, or opt for a monochromatic scheme for a more subtle effect. The choice of yarn is entirely yours: don’t hesitate to use remnants from your stash or combine different colors to craft a unique set. There's no obligation for the coasters to match, allowing for plenty of creative freedom!
The sport weight cotton version measures an engaging 10cm/4” square, while the DK weight version, crafted in The Fibre Co. Luma, comes in at a slightly larger 11cm square to accommodate various preferences. If you’re considering substituting a fingering weight yarn for a more delicate look, you may want to increase the dimensions by adding an extra stitch on either side and an additional row at the top and bottom. Alternatively, adding an icord edge can enhance its charm and durability.
Unleash your creativity and bring a touch of fun to your home with these delightful Noughts & Croasters coasters. Perfect for casual gatherings, family game nights, or as a personalized gift for the knitting enthusiasts in your life. Download this free pattern today and start your next project!
