Inspired by the rainbow beanie that I made for my cousin the other day, I decided to make a quick rainbow coaster. I love the colors of the rainbow and I think that Mother Nature is so great at picking out colors that match! Here is the very simple, easy and fast pattern for you to crochet the rainbow coaster. Skill Level:

Finished Size: 3” (8 cm) diameter

Materials:
Medium Weight Yarn (Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Purple)
Crochet Hook H (5.00 mm)
