How to Make Crocheted Snowman Coasters

I love to make these really cute snowman coasters. They are very easy to make and are good for using leftover scraps of yarn. They can be used for coasters or winter decorations, or even package decorations. Snowman decorations are great for Christmas decorations and can be used through the month of February. Here is the pattern:
