Cassette Film Coasters
"If you can crochet, you can make these one-of-a-kind coasters. Just crack open the cassette case, remove the spool of film, and start crocheting. Here’s the simple pattern I used: Materials: Spool of film from mini cassette tape, 6 mm hook, scissors, stitch marker, yarn needle Terminology: ch = chain; sc = single crochet; dc = double crochet; sl st = slip stitch; st = stitch; pm = place marker; rep = repeat; sp = space; sk = skip "
