Crochet Mug Coaster

Materials:

Yarn: Medium weight (Worsted, category 4) cotton yarn (approximately 30 yards of white yarn)
Hook: Size H/8 (5.0 mm) crochet hook
Scissors: For cutting yarn
Tapestry needle: For weaving in ends

Gauge: 4 inches = 12 double crochet stitches

How to measure gauge: Make a swatch of double crochet stitches in white yarn, measuring 4 inches square. Ensure you have the correct number of stitches before starting on your coaster.

Abbreviations:

ch - chain
sc - single crochet
dc - double crochet
sl st - slip stitch

Instructions:

Round 1: Begin by creating a slip knot and chaining 6. Join with a slip stitch to form a ring.

Round 2: Chain 3 (counts as the first dc), then work 11 dc into the ring. Join with a sl st to the top of the first dc. (12 dc total)

Round 3: Chain 3, dc in the same stitch, then *2 dc in the next stitch*. Repeat from * to * around, joining with a sl st to the top of the first dc. (24 dc total)

Round 4: Chain 1, sc in the same stitch, then *2 sc in the next stitch, sc in the next stitch*. Repeat from * to * around, joining with a sl st to the first sc. (36 sc total)

Round 5: Chain 1, sc in each stitch around. Join with a slip stitch to the first sc. (36 sc total)

Finish: After completing round 5, cut the yarn, leaving a tail for weaving in. Use the tapestry needle to weave in all the ends securely.

Optional Variations:

Use different colors to create a striped effect.
Make the coaster larger by adding additional rounds of sc, increasing the number of stitches as you go.

Finishing Tips: It’s a good idea to block your coaster lightly to help the shape hold, especially if you're using a non-stretchy yarn. Place it flat, dampen slightly, and let it dry in the desired shape.
