The Pattern
Ch 4 join in ring with a slip stitch.
Round 1
Ch 3, 11 dc in ring, join with a slst in first dc (not in top of ch 3), don't over tighten, then the slip stitch will be over the beginning ch 3 and it will look as lovely as the very first dc of round 1.
Round 2
Slst in space between the beginning ch 3 and following dc, ch 2, dc2tog in same space, ch 1, (dc3tog in space between the two following dc, ch 1) - 11 times, slst in top of beginning dc3tog, slst in first ch-1-space of the round.
Round 3
Ch 2, dc3tog in same space, ch 2, (dc4tog in following ch-1-space, ch 2) - 11 times, slst in top of beginning dc4tog. After you finish this round, you may notice that your coaster is a bit twisted up, resembling a small crochet bowl. Don't worry! After you make the last round, the coaster will be perfectly flat.
Round 4
Ch 1, sc in same space, (hdc, 3 dc, hdc) in following ch-2-space, ** sc in top of dc4tog, (hdc, 3 dc, hdc) in following ch-2-space - 10 times in total from **, (hdc, 3 dc, hdc) in last ch-2-space, slst in first hdc (not in first sc). Fasten off.
