These stylish two-tone knit coasters are perfect for adding a pop of color to your table. Worked flat with basic color changes, they’re a fun way to practice carrying yarn and combining hues.

Materials
– Worsted weight cotton yarn in two contrasting colors (approx. 15g each)
– 4 mm knitting needles
– Tapestry needle
– Scissors

Instructions

  1. With Color A, cast on 24 stitches.

  2. Knit 4 rows in garter stitch (all knit) for a border.

  3. Switch to stockinette stripe pattern:

    • Row 1 (RS): Knit across with Color A

    • Row 2 (WS): Purl across with Color A

    • Row 3 (RS): Knit across with Color B

    • Row 4 (WS): Purl across with Color B

    • Repeat Rows 1–4 to create alternating stripes

  4. Work stripe pattern until piece measures approx. 10 cm.

How To

  1. Avoid Holes: When switching colors, always twist yarns together on the edge.

  2. Keep Edges Neat: Carry unused yarn loosely along the side.

  3. Blocking Helps: Light steam blocking can flatten and even out color tension.

  4. Best Yarn: Cotton yarn is heat-resistant and ideal for coasters.

  5. Use Scraps: Great for using up leftover yarns in coordinated pairs.
