You will now begin working the edging around the outside of the coaster.
Ch 1, turn. *Work 14 sc evenly across to the first corner. Work (1 sc, ch 1, 1 sc) in the corner st.**
Ch 1, turn to work along the next edge and rep from * to **.
Note: When you work the side edges work your stitches on the carried strands, 1 sc around each color and 1 sc around the overlap section of the 2 strands. This hides the carried yarn completely.
Ch 1, turn to work along the next edge and rep from * to **.
Ch 1, turn to work along the final edge and rep from * to **.
Finish off with an invisible join and weave in ends.
