Today's Crochet Pattern For 

FRIDAY FUN DAY

is an Acorn Coaster,

 that can also be a Applique

Even The Neighborhood Squirrel thinks

 they are Fun.

But, Really they are quick and easy to crochet.

And The color combinations are up you 

 and your creativity. Traditional colors are great, 

but it sure is fun to stretch the imagination and come

 up with some unusual, yet pretty combinations.

Just make sure if your are using the acorn for a coaster you use cotton yarn to absorb the moisture. 

And if it's an applique Acrylic will work just fine.

The Acorn measures about 4 X 6 inches and can be

 added to just about anything like hats, Scarves,

 placemats, table runners, blankets, buntings and bags. Stitch up several and make a lovely centerpiece.

You can add silk flowers and leaves, buttons

 and all sorts of embellishments to personalize

 them also.

Just Have So Much Fun!
