Step By Step Pattern

Materials

To make your Turkey Coasters, you’ll need the following:

  • Yarn: Himalaya Himagurumi cotton yarns (or any soft cotton yarn in multiple colors)
    • Suggested colors: Brown (body), yellow (beak/feet), red, orange, and green for decorative feathers
  • Crochet Hook: 2.75 mm
  • Optional Tools:
    • Scissors
    • Stitch markers (for keeping track of rounds)
    • Yarn needle (for weaving in ends)

Pattern Instructions

Step 1: Start the Turkey Body

  1. Begin with a magic ring.
  2. Row 1: Chain 3 (counts as first dc). Make 15 double crochets into the ring (16 total including chain). Close the round with a slip stitch into the top of the first chain.
  3. Row 2: Chain 3. Make 2 double crochets into each stitch from the previous row. (Total: 30 stitches). Close the round with a slip stitch.

Step 2: Continue Building the Body

  1. Row 3 (Increasing Row):
    • Chain 3, double crochet into the same space.
    • Alternate stitches: 1 double crochet into the next stitch, 2 double crochets into the next. (Repeat: 1v, x dc)
    • Finish the row with a slip stitch.

Step 3: Change Colors for Contrast

  1. Attach a new yarn color.
  2. Row 4: Chain 1 and work single crochets (sc) into each stitch around. Use a slip stitch to close the round.

Step 4: Form Decorative Feather Groups

  1. Change to another contrasting color.
  2. Row 5: Chain 3. In the first stitch, make:
    • 2 double crochets, 1 chain, 2 double crochets into the same space.
    • Skip 2 spaces, then repeat (make 10 groups of feathers total by skipping spaces).
  3. End the row with a slip stitch.

Step 5: Add Layers to the Feathers

  1. Change colors again.
  2. Row 6: Repeat the process for the feather groups, but continue in the chain spaces of the previous feather row. (2 dc, 1 ch, 2 dc in each space).
  3. Row 7: Switch colors and make larger feather clusters. Do this by making:
    • 3 double crochets, 1 chain, 3 double crochets into each chain space.

Step 6: Create Head and Face

  1. Use brown yarn to add the turkey’s head detail by crocheting smaller clusters and single crochets at the top edge of the body.

Step 7: Crochet the Feet

  1. Use yellow yarn to create the feet:
    • Chain 6, slip stitch into the 5th chain to form a toe.
    • Make 4 chains, slip stitch into the same space (repeat for 2 more toes).
    • Attach the feet securely to the bottom of the body with single crochets.

Step 8: Add Final Decorations

  1. Use red or orange yarn to crochet a wattle or any decorative touches.

Pattern Question

Question: How can I adjust the size of the coasters?

Answer: You can increase the size by adding extra rows of double crochets or modifying the number of groups in the circular rows. This allows you to create larger coasters while maintaining the design’s balance.
