Quick & Easy Coasters Free Crochet Pattern

DSCN0390

My mom recently cleaned out her storage room and gave me a bunch of yarn that she’s accumulated over the years and decided she’s not going to use.

Yes, score for me! 🙂 BUT, when I say a bunch of yarn, I mean a BUNCH of yarn:DSCN0367

The positives: More yarn than I will probably use in my lifetime, don’t have to buy yarn for a LONG time, tons of yarn to brainstorm new projects with.

The negatives: More yarn than I will probably use in my lifetime, don’t have a good excuse to go yarn shopping, tons of yarn for find storage space for.

Always a catch.

Anyways, A lot of this yarn is cotton yarn. Personally I’ve never found a lot of use for cotton yarn… most of the projects I’ve been attracted to call for acrylic, wool, or fancy-type yarn. Now, you can use any worsted weight yarn in this pattern and it will turn out fine- I’ve used the same pattern with acrylic yarn and they turned out great; its just that acrylic yarn isn’t as absorbent as cotton yarn.

I’ve been crocheting for a few years, but I’m new to the blogging world and I’ve never wrote out patterns to share, so if you see any mistakes or something you don’t understand, please comment and let me know!

Quick & Easy Coasters Free Crochet Pattern

This is a free and easy pattern, and since they are flower-shaped, they are perfect for spring! And cotton yarn is an excellent choice for crocheting coasters since it is so absorbent.

Yarn: 15 yards of any worsted weight cotton yarn should work. The one I used for the demonstration below is Lily Sugar ‘n Cream Cotton Yarn in Hot Purple where to buy

I make a small commission at no additional cost to you from purchases made through links on this page. Your purchases through links on this page makes it possible for me to keep blogging and bringing you all the great content you see here on The Painted Hinge! 🙂

Hook: Size H/8 5mm

Directions:
The pictures show the pattern being worked from left to right because I am left handed. It can be worked either left to right or right to left and achieve the same results.

Chain 5; join with slip stitch to form a loop:DSCN0372

 

Round 1: chain 3, then * double crochet 1, chain 1 * – repeat directions between the * 7 times into the loop, then double crochet once more into the loop and join the round with a slip stich:DSCN0375

 

Round 2: ch 1; single crochet around:DSCN0378

 

Round 3: chain 3, then * double crochet 1, chain 1 * – repeat directions between the * 16 times, then double crochet once more and join the round with a slip stich:DSCN0381

 

Round 4: repeat round 2:DSCN0383

 

Round 5: *skip 1 stitch, double crochet 5 times in same stitch, skip 1 stitch, single crochet* -repeat directions between the * 7 times, then skip 1 stitch, double crochet 5 times in same stitch, skip 1 stitch, and join the round with a slip stitch:DSCN0385

Tie off and weave in ends. And there you have it! 🙂

Note: Whenever I finish the “petals” I inevitably have an extra stich or two in the last round, even though I shouldn’t! If this happens to you, just figure out how many extra stitches you have, back off a petal or two, and skip 2 stitches instead of one between the single and double crochet until you make up the difference.

Also Note: I am left-handed, so I crochet left-handed. If the demo pics look a little off to you for some reason, that’s probably why. The stitches are the same for right-handers; the hook would just be facing the other way in the pics.

If you liked this pattern or you have any questions, please leave me a comment!

      Thanks Connie! 🙂 When you have 8 cats, it’s hard not to get at least a couple of them in the pics (not that I try all that hard to keep them out).

      You’re welcome Manda! 🙂 Yes, it’s always great to have the instant gratification smaller projects give, especially if I’ve been working on a very large project for what seems like forever!

    Thank you for this great pattern. I love making coasters to use up leftover yarn. I’ve been using a pattern that is more complicated, and not near as cute as yours!

    If you want to trade to either get more of that ancient terry yarn or are willing to part with some to increase my stash. Let me know. I found a BAG full of many colors at a upcycling store

      Hi Liza! Going through my yarn is on my to-do list, but I am probably not going to get to it until after the first of the year. Sounds like you got a great find at the upcycle store! 🙂

    When you single crochet around in rounds 2 and 4, do you single crochet in the 1 chain spaces? I single crocheted in the spaces and I came out with 9 petals instead of the 8 in the pattern.

      Hi Linda,

      Yes, I do crochet in the chain spaces, so I don’t know where you might have got the extra stitches. If you don’t like the coaster having 9 petals, I would count the stitches as you work round 4 and skip a stitch here and there to get the right count.

      Hope this helps! 🙂

        Hi Michelle!

        I made another coaster and this time kept count and ended up with 8 petals. I love crocheting with Sugar and Cream or Peaches and Cream cotton yarn and I make potholders (as gifts). I had a pattern book for coasters using cotton yarn….I think it was a Leisure Arts book, but I have misplaced it somewhere. Do you have more patterns for coasters using cotton yarn?

        Thanks!

          Hi Linda! Yes, I have this pattern: http://www.thepaintedhinge.com/2016/02/26/farmhouse-style-coasters-free-crochet-pattern/ It’s very similar this one, but it’s a little bigger and has a couple more patals.

    Just made this quickly in my free time! Super well explained and even clear enough for a newbie like me. Just started crocheting maybe like 2 weeks ago and I generally tend to shy away from written patterns, but as I said it was so easily understood that even I could do it! Definitely going to be keeping this pattern for future use.
