Crochet Flower Coasters

Another beautiful pattern for the coasters.



The pattern is simple and very easy.


Foundation Ring
6 ch and join with sl st to form a ring.

Round 1
2 ch, 23 dc round into the ring, close with a sl st (total of 24 dc)

Round 2
4 ch (counts as 1 dc + 2 ch) 1 dc in the closing sl st of the previous row
1 ch * skip 2 ch, in the next ch: 1 dc, 2 ch, 1 dc, 1 ch * Repeat 7x from * to *. Close round with a sl st in the 2nd ch (of 4 ) of the start.

Round 3 2 ch (counts as 1 dc), 1 dc, 2 ch, 2 dc under the 2 ch of the previous row, 1 sc under the 1 ch * 2 dc, 2 ch, 2 dc as before, 1 sc as before *. Repeat 7 x from * to *. Close with a sl st in 2nd ch (of 2) of the start.

Round 4 No build up with ch as before, directly 3 dc, 1 ch, 3 dc under the 2 ch of the previous row, 1 sc to the left and right of the sc of the previous row. Repeat 8 x and close with a sl st in the 1st ch of the previous row. Bind off.

And there you have it, it really is that easy.

I have used these coasters for my beautiful candle holders.
