Flowers, hearts, fruits, and animals are the most favored subjects for a crochet coaster. So, in this post, I decided to share these 5 unique crochet coasters that include some of my favorite crochet coasters designed by Xiaoshimei.

These include the most creative way to make three flower coasters, one heart in the centre coaster, and one healing amigurumi animal and fruit coaster. Each idea will come with its own variation inspiration. That’s why they are great for gifting, especially during spring.

01 of 05 Crochet Tulip Flower Coaster

This crochet flower coaster has a medium size so that you can choose it as a drink coaster or a placemat, too. This seems similar to the popular bouquet coaster, but a really nice variation.

That is, it features a solid center base and works a set of tulip buds separately with leaves above the last few rounds.

In total, there are 8 sets, and the bottom part also has leafy edging. So, looks cute on both sides. Choose from pink and fall versions.

Materials Needed

The materials used in the tutorial for this flower coaster are:

  1. Yarn: 4-strand cotton yarn (牛奶棉 / Milk Cotton yarn)

Cute, 3D, amigurumi coasters can be kids’ favorites. So, follow this tutorial to crochet a set of three animal cup coasters with three different fruit slice centers.

That includes a cat, bear, and pig with the watermelon, orange, and kiwi slices.

04 of 05 Crochet Simplest Flower Coaster

With post double crochet, yarns in many colors, and some surface-stitching, this crochet flower coaster looks so beautiful. The special thing is the use of long stitch (double treble) that is crocheted into the previous rounds, which separates the petals.

I am quite sure you will love it, whether in red and pink, green and yellow, or blue and sky blue. It is great for spring and works up fast.

Materials Needed

The tutorial for the crochet flower coaster uses the following materials:

  • Yarn: 5-ply milk cotton yarn (used in multiple colors for the different rounds).
