Ornamental Crochet Mandalas

Crochet mandalas are true pieces of art. You can use them as decoration or part of a bigger project, but they always catch the eye and make the design look amazing.
Put them on your table as placemats or coasters, depending on their size, show them off by hanging them on the walls, or make a beautiful circular cushion. Using many colors and different techniques may be tricky for beginners, so I recommend these ideas to more experienced crocheters. Colorful floral mandalas can brighten up the interior and bring the fresh vibe to your home. Try them today! Search for links to free patterns under the pictures below.
