Crochet Flower Stitch Coaster Tutorial
Skill Level: Beginner – Intermediate. The flower coaster pattern is worked from the center outward by working in the round without any sewing, using the basic double crochet and increase pattern for the first two rounds. For the third round, you will also need the chain spaces and then a single crochet round, too. Color changes and the leaf pattern need to decrease and chain spaces. For the flower stitch, you will need double crochet clusters, a chain for the tulip look, and working in chain spaces. As per usual, you will also need a slip stitch.
Tutorial Timing: 25 minutes only for the coaster and 22 minutes for the pot (perfect for learning the connected tulip flower stitch, cluster stitches, and lace-work. Plus, crochet the pot pattern that can be used as a general-purpose basket. You can also crochet this flower coaster for Christmas, using the red yarn for the flower. Moreover, practicing working in rounds.)
Personalization Tips: You can crochet in red for a rose bouquet coaster, orange for the pumpkin flower coaster, or any tulip color like purple and even yellow. You can easily increase the size of this coaster by making more inner rounds and, in the end, crochet the tulip stitch. Decorate your pot with appliques or beads, or try a new color like dark brown will suit best.
