Lion Brand 24/7 Cotton Yarn

For my Summer Sunset coasters, I dug into my stash for leftover 24/7 cotton yarn that Lion Brand had previously provided for other projects. This is one of my go-to yarns for summer and home decor projects. It has the strength and sheen of mercerized cotton, in a large variety of colors.

Lion Brand 24/7 Cotton Yarn

For the gold and orange hues of sunset, I chose #158R Goldenrod and #133 Tangerine. Then, the fiery colors fade into a summer evening sky of #108G Denim. Change the mood with floral or pastel colors instead, or use up any worsted weight cotton scraps you have!
