Sand Dollar Coaster Pattern

I have another coaster pattern.  This one was made in buff colored yarn and the design sort of reminds me of a sand dollar.  As much as I love multi-colored motif coasters, using 1 color means the stitches themselves take center stage.  It also means less ends to weave in at the end. :)

This pattern uses US crochet terms.  I used worsted weight cotton yarn and a size H hook but a similar sized hook can be used.

If you have any questions about this pattern, leave a comment and I will do my best to help you out.

  1. Ch 3, sl st into 3rd ch from hook to form a ring
  2. ch 1, 11 hdc in ring, sl st into first hdc to join
  3. ch 2, 2dc in same st, *skip 1 st, 3dc in next st, repeat from * 4 more times, sl st into beginning dc to join
  4. sl st in next dc, sl st into space between clusters, ch 2, 2hdc in same space, *1 hdc in each of the next 2 dc, 3 hdc in space between clusters, repeat from * 4 more times, 1 hdc in each of the next 2 sl st, sl st into beginning hdc to join
  5. *ch 6, skip 4 hdc, 1 sc in next hdc, repeat from * 4 more times, ch 6, sl st into last st of row 4
  6. *12 sc in ch 6 space, repeat from * 5 more times, sl st into beginning sc, fasten off, weave ends.


    Feel free to make this pattern for yourself, as a gift or to sell but please link to the original pattern when sharing.

Halushka Recipe ~ Braised Cabbage and Dumplings

Image
This recipe is very popular in Pennsylvania where my family is from.  There are slightly different names and slightly different recipes but basically halushka or haluski is a braised cabbage dish with either noodles, pasta or dumplings and sometimes bacon, ham or smoked sausage added.  It is sometimes a side dish but most often it's a main dish.  It is a common potluck dish. In my version I use bacon and drippings and homemade dumplings.  Most recipes will call for cooked wide egg noodles, kluski noodles or bite size pasta like farfalle (bowties).  Instead, I like to make dumplings because they are delicious and because its more likely that I'll have a cup of flour and an egg on hand than a bag of noodles.  Either way it is a quick, easy, inexpensive and delicious dinner. If you want to omit the bacon you can substitute butter for a vegetarian version or use olive oil and an egg-free pasta for a vegan friendly version. I hope you give this recipe and try and I hope that you lov
