by Creating a beautiful crochet coaster is a fun, quick project — perfect for gifts, home décor, or using up leftover yarn. Here’s a simple yet elegant round coaster pattern that works up fast and looks polished!
🧶 Materials:
- Worsted weight cotton yarn (ideal for coasters)
- 4mm or 4.5mm crochet hook
- Scissors and yarn needle
🌸 Easy & Beautiful Crochet Coaster Pattern (US Terms)
🔸 Round 1: Magic Ring Center
- Make a magic ring.
- Ch 2 (counts as first dc), work 11 dc into the ring.
- Pull tight, sl st to top of ch 2. (12 dc total)
🔸 Round 2: Increase Round
- Ch 2, 2 dc in each stitch around.
- Join with sl st. (24 dc)
🔸 Round 3: Decorative Edge
- Ch 1, (sc in next st, ch 2, skip 1) repeat around.
- Sl st to first sc. This creates a delicate looped edge.
- Fasten off and weave in ends.
🪷 Optional Variations:
- Shell Edging: Instead of ch-loops in Round 3, try (5 dc in one stitch, skip 1, sl st in next) for a scalloped look.
- Color Change: Change colors between rounds for contrast (e.g., white center, pastel outer).
- Lace Look: Use sport weight yarn and a 3.5mm hook for a finer finish.
✅ Finishing Tips:
- Block your coasters (especially if they’re curling) by dampening and pinning flat.
- Use cotton yarn — it’s absorbent and heat-resistant.
- Make a set in complementary colors for a matching table set.
