Free Crochet Flower Coaster Pattern: Materials & Tools

Type of yarn: this free pattern will work nicely with 100% cotton, 100% acrylic yarn or a blend of both. However, I personally prefer 100% cotton as the best yarn when working on crochet coaster patterns.

Suggested yarn weight: Light Worsted #3 = DK yarn

I used these yarn colors – they are quite bright colors but you can of course choose whichever color you like

R: row or round

MR: magic ring / magic circle

ST: stitch

CH: chain stitch – yarn over and pull through

SC: single crochet stitch – insert your hook into the next stitch, yarn over and pull through, you will now have two loops on the hook. Yarn over and pull through both loops on the hook

DC: double crochet stitch – yarn over, insert your hook into the next stitch, yarn over, pull up a loop so you now have three loops on the hook. Yarn over, pull through two loops, yarn over, pull through remaining two loops.

INV SS / SL ST: invisible slip stitch – when you finish your last stitch in the round, pull up the yarn a bit and remove the hook; then insert the hook into the stitch you would like to slip stitch into BUT go from the back of your work to the front. Loop your yarn back around the hook and pull the loop tight around the hook. Then pull the hook through the stitch and twist the hook back into normal position. After you twist the hook, your yarn will be in front of it so just place it behind the hook.

INV FO: invisible fasten off

(…..) x 6: repeat the pattern inside the brackets by the given number (in this example, repeat the pattern in the brackets 6 times)

{…}: number shown inside these brackets equals the number of total stitches at the end of each round
