Gauge, Approximate Size, and Pattern Notes
Gauge: (Optional for this project.) Approximately 4 SC rows = 1 inch. Crochet loosely or adjust hook size to match gauge if specific dimensions are desired.
Approximate Finished Size: The completed flower coaster will measure 5 inches in diameter.
Special Techniques: In this project, working into chain spaces (CH-SP) is required for creating petals. No gauge swatch is strictly necessary, but ensure your tension remains consistent throughout.
Step-by-Step Pattern
Foundation Round:
Start with a magic loop (or chain 4 and join to form a ring).
CH 1, and work 12 SC into the ring.
SL ST into the first SC to close the round.
Round 1 (Petal Bases):
CH 3 (counts as first DC).
In the same stitch, work 2 DC.
CH 1, skip next SC, and work 3 DC into the following stitch.
Repeat: (CH 1, skip 1 SC, 3 DC in next stitch) around.
SL ST to the top of the CH 3 to close the round.
Round 2 (Petals):
CH 2.
In the first CH-SP created in Round 1, work the following: (1 HDC, 3 DC, 1 HDC).
SL ST into the next CH-SP to join.
Continue working (1 HDC, 3 DC, 1 HDC) into each CH-SP around to form petals.
SL ST into the starting CH to close the round.
Finishing Touches:
Cut the yarn and pull through the last loop.
Use a yarn needle to weave in all loose ends securely.
Block lightly if desired to flatten and shape the petals for a professional finish.
