Materials needed:

This is made in two pieces that are then joined. The CD is sandwiched between the two sides making a very thick and protective hot pad for any surface or table.

Round 1: Ch 3 (counts as first dc here and throughout), 14 dc in ring. Join with sl st top of ch 3. (15dc)

Round 2: Ch 3, dc in same stitch. Make 2 dc in each dc around. Join with sl st to top of first dc. (30dc)

Round 7: Joining Round! Now hold the back and front sides together with wrong sides facing in, sandwich the CD between the two sides. If there is writing on the CD be sure to place the written side towards the back so it will not show. Now that you are holding the CD sandwich, working through both sides, sc in each sc around.
