Create a lovely and practical crocheted coaster perfect for protecting your surfaces. This project is great for beginners and can be made in any color to match your home decor. Make a set of these coasters for yourself or as a thoughtful gift for a friend!

Simple Crocheted Coaster

Materials:

  • Yarn: 100% cotton worsted weight yarn, approximately 50-75 yards
  • Hook: 4.5 mm (G/7) crochet hook
  • Scissors for cutting yarn
  • Tapestry needle for weaving in ends

Gauge:

For this project, gauge is not crucial. However, if you want to match the size, 4 dc (double crochet) should measure about 2 inches in diameter. To measure gauge, make a small swatch of 10 stitches 10 rows tall and check the dimensions.

Abbreviations:

  • ch: chain
  • sl st: slip stitch
  • dc: double crochet
  • st: stitch

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Round 1: Start by making a magic ring (or make a slip knot and ch 5, then join to form a ring). Inside the ring, work 12 dc. Pull the tail to tighten the ring. Join with a sl st to the top of the first dc. Your ring should measure about 3 inches in diameter.

Round 2: Ch 3 (counts as your first dc), then dc into the same st. 2 dc in each st around (24 dc total). Join with sl st to the top of the first ch 3.

Round 3: Ch 3, dc in the same st. *1 dc in the next st, 2 dc in the following st.* Repeat from * to * around. You should have 36 dc. Join with sl st to the first dc.

Round 4: Ch 1, *sc in the next 4 dc, 2 sc in the next dc.* Repeat from * to * around. Join with sl st to the first sc.

Round 5: Ch 1, *sc in each st around.* Repeat until your coaster is at your desired thickness, typically 2-3 more rounds. After the last round, join with a sl st to the first sc.

Finishing: Cut the yarn and pull through the last st. Weave in all ends using a tapestry needle. If desired, you can block the coaster lightly by dampening it and placing it flat to dry to maintain the shape.

Optional Variations:

Feel free to experiment with colors or use a variegated yarn for a fun effect. You can also add a decorative border by working a round of single crochets or slip stitches around the outer edge.

Enjoy your cozy and stylish crocheted coasters!
