I’ve had many, many requests for a crochet coaster pattern since I originally posted making coasters because the original pattern seems to have disappeared. If it does pop back up Ill link back to it, but in the meantime, here’s a quick little tutorial for you to whip up some crochet coasters, for yourself or as a lovely gift!
To make these crochet coasters you will need…
- DK (8ply) yarn – I like to use a cotton or cotton blend
- 3mm or 3.5mm crochet hook – use a slightly smaller hook than usual because you want a nice firm fabric.
- Needle to sew in ends
First up, chain 6 and join to form a ring:
Chain 3 (counts as first DC) and DC 19 into the ring (20DC) Join with a SS into the top of the starting chain 3 to complete the round. 
Chain 3, DC in the next Stitch and Chain 2:
DC in the next 2 Stitches, Chain 2 – repeat around. Join with a SS into the top of the starting chain 3 to complete the round:
SS into the next Chain 2 space:
Chain 3, DC, Chain 3, 2DC into the first chain 2 space:
2DC, chain 3, 2DC into each remaining chain 2 space – repeat around. Join with a SS into the top of the starting chain 3 to complete the round:
SS to next chain 3 space. Chain 3, 7 DC in space:
8 DC into each chain 3 space around. Join with a SS into the top of the starting chain 3 to complete the round:
Turn over and sew in the ends…
Make just one, or a whole bunch. I love crochet coasters!
Especially when accompanied by a cup of tea and a good book!
Have a lovely weekend everyone! J xox

Just started a new job as a customer service administrator and my desk is looking a bit bare and boring. Just knocked out one of these to brighten up my desk and to protect from drinks and spillages! One question, would it go through a laminator so I’d just have to wipe clean rather than machine wash?

Is there a pattern for the bowl

Hi Karrie, I don’t. Its not hard though; simply crochet a flat circle slightly larger than your coasters. Then continue crocheting without any more increases until the bowl is deep enough to hold your coasters. Good luck!

Just in time for Christmas! I have resolved to make as many gifts as possible this year and coasters may well be one of those gifts that I will duplicate for various different people. I’m already half-way through a shawl for my mother. These coasters look great and the pattern is simple. Win, win, win!

Hi Gayle, the coasters won’t turn out well with that ply yarn (any of them) I’d suggest you get either and 8ply or 10 ply (worsted) weight yarn. Good luck!

Hi Janette,
Lovely pattern. I tried it out, but it didn’t come out flat — it got kind of bunched up, and it’s very tight at the center. Basically it won’t lie flat. Any idea what I could have done wrong? I wonder if my tension was too tight at the beginning…? I used a 3.5 mm crochet hook and Worsted Red Heart Super Saver Wool #4 — was the wool too thick? Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks. Love your site!

Sounds like your yarn is much to think for your hook. Try a dk weight yarn and 3.5mm hook. Xx

Once you have the bottom just a round or two bigger than the coasters, you simply keep working in rounds until it is the desired height (don’t increase or decrease), you can make it a little tighter near the rim by decreasing a coulee of rounds before you finish. good luck!!!
