Materials

Here’s what you’ll need to recreate these daisy coasters:

• Yarn: 100% cotton yarn in two colors:
  • Color A: For the inner circle/flower center (e.g., yellow)
  • Color B: For the outer petals (e.g., white or any petal color you like)
• Hook: 2 mm crochet hook (or size appropriate to your yarn’s weight)
• Optional Tools:
  • Scissors for cutting yarn
  • Tapestry needle for weaving in ends

Stitch Guide

Before beginning, here’s a quick explanation of the key stitches and techniques used:

• Magic Ring: A technique to start crocheting a round piece without a hole in the center. Create a loop of yarn, work your first stitches into the loop, and pull the tail tight to close the ring.
• Ch (Chain): Yarn over, pull through the loop on your hook.
• Sl St (Slip Stitch): Insert your hook into the stitch, yarn over, and pull through both loops on the hook.
• Dc (Double Crochet): Yarn over, insert your hook into the stitch, yarn over again, pull through (3 loops on the hook). Yarn over, pull through 2 loops, yarn over, pull through the remaining 2 loops.
• Fpdc (Front Post Double Crochet): Yarn over, insert your hook from front to back around the post of the stitch from the previous round, yarn over, pull up a loop, then complete the dc as usual.

Notes

• Gauge: These coasters don’t require strict gauge measurements. Just make sure the yarn and hook you choose create a firm, flat fabric.
• Customization: Feel free to change the colors to match your home decor or make multi-colored petals by switching yarn more frequently.
• Troubleshooting Tips: If your coaster begins to curl or pucker at any point, check your tension and ensure you’re not adding or skipping stitches accidentally.

Pattern Instructions

Here’s the step-by-step process for crocheting your Daisy Coaster:

Round 1 (Flower Center / Color A):

1. Start with a magic ring.
2. Ch 3 (this will count as your first dc).
3. Work 11 dc into the magic ring. This gives you a total of 12 dc (including the starting ch-3).
4. Close the round with a sl st into the top of the ch-3.

You’ve now completed the flower center.

Round 2 (Inner Base of Petals / Color A):

1. Ch 3 (counts as the first dc).
2. Work 1 dc in the same stitch as the starting ch-3, then work 2 dc in each stitch around.
3. Important: Work into the back loops only throughout this round.
4. Close the round with a sl st into the top of the ch-3.

This round creates the base for the petals.

Round 3 (Petal Decoration / Color B):

1. Attach Color B with a sl st in any stitch.
2. Ch 3 (counts as the first dc). Skip the next stitch.
3. Continue with this sequence:
   • 2 dc in the next stitch
   • 1 dc in the next stitch
   • 2 dc in the next stitch
   • 1 dc in the next stitch
     Repeat all the way around, skipping 1 stitch in between each repetition.
4. Close the round with a sl st.

 

Round 4 (Petal Accents / Color B):

1. Yarn over and work 1 front post dc (fpdc) around the ch-3 made in the previous round.
2. Continue with the following pattern:
   • 2 dc
   • 1 dc
   • 1 fpdc around the dc from the previous round
     Repeat the sequence all around.
3. Finish the round with a sl st to the starting fpdc.

Round 5 (Finishing Touches / Color B):

1. Ch 1, skip the next stitch, and work 2 dc in the next 2 stitches.
2. Ch 1, then sl st around the fpdc from the previous round.
3. Continue this pattern:
   • Ch 1, skip the next stitch, and work 2 dc in the next 2 stitches.
   • Ch 1, sl st.
     Repeat all the way around.
4. Close the round with ch 1, then fasten off by pulling and cutting your yarn.

Be sure to weave in the loose ends with a tapestry needle.
