Holiday Holly Crochet Trivet

Looking for some quick holiday décor or gifts? Look no further than this adorable Holiday Holly Crochet Trivet. This is a free pattern that works up quickly, and adds a bit of cheer to any table setting! You can even increase the size of the base and make a placemat! I recommend using cotton yarn, as acrylic has the potential to melt from heat. Read on for the free pattern below, or purchase an ad free printable PDF.

Assembly

Arrange holly leaves onto base in desired locations.  Sew (recommended) or glue to base.  (remember that if you sew, there will be threads showing on the under side of coaster base.  This doesn’t matter if you’re attaching cork to the bottom, as the cork will cover it).  

Once leaves are attached, follow the same steps with the berries.

If adding cork base, cut to size and attach to under side of coaster base.
