I don't know if you know, but instead of trying to control your tension with your hands, you can size up and down with your crochet hook to make those coasters smaller and larger. Using a larger hook will make it more loose and drapey and using a smaller hook will make them tighter and stiffer. Also, I say ramen like "rAH-men". :D Also I like the idea of your giftees picking their own projects instead of you making random stuff that they don't want. Cool!
Thanks for the tip! I will have to try sizing up for the lighter color coaster because I could not get the tension right. I think I may continue to allow the giftees to pick their gifts because then I know it is something they will use :)
Loved your podcast…..I also love making gifts for my family! I enjoyed seeing all your projects and the colors you used❤️
Clinicals AND a crochet blanket 😮 you are so hard working ❤❤
yesss cancel overhead lights
i love the realness about being a perfectionist to get the coasters the same size 😭 glad im not the only one.
It’s a real struggle 🤣

When I have to chain over 200 or even 150 i use stitch savers every 25 chains.
That's smart! I should start doing that because I get so distracted haha
Rah-men is how I say it
