From the blogger: "Do you feel in the mood for a small project with a beachy summery flair to put you in the holiday feeling? Then these small coasters shaped like sea shells are perfect for you. They are useful to put under a cool drink in summer. They can also double as potholders. Furthermore, as a very small piece they are great to practice new knitting techniques - in this case short rows and intarsia. Plus they are great to use leftover yarn."

Well, time to pull up my big girl pants and take a chance on making this. It's too cute to pass by. And what have I got to lose? If it doesn't work, I just unravel it and make something else. These would look so cute at my sisters summer place at the lake!

This is a good way to learn short rows. It will work up quickly as well. I think these will make cute washcloths as well. Seashell patterns are always popular so they will make good gifts as well. Thank you.

I am always interested to see and learn new knitting stitches, so this pattern caught my eye right away. I have worked with short rows before but this pattern uses a different technique. I like working with cotton yarn, which this pattern uses, so I think I'll have to try making these.
