I love the idea of recycling materials to make this project. I never would have thought of using an old purse or other leather goods. Alternately, you can use some sort of faux leather as long as it goes along with the look. Great idea using kitchen twine instead of regular crochet yarn or thread. If you can find some preshrunk felt, that would eliminate yet another problem.

Wow. I have seen a lot of coaster pattern ideas but this Leather and Crochet Coasters for Him is new to me. It is predominantly made of leather accentuated with a double crochet edging meant for the men in your life. The crochet edging gives the coaster a unisex appeal that is safe for the women to use as gift as well. This is perfect as birthday gift, anniversary or father's day gift. It will also be a fine Christmas gift. The edging can come in different solid colors of your choice. I like the simplicity of these coasters.
