Yarn
I always use cotton yarn for my crochet coasters.
Cotton yarn absorbs liquid, is durable, and can be washed in dried in the machine so it’s the perfect yarn for something like coasters!
Currently my favorite cotton yarn is WeCrochet KnitPicks Dishie!
For my Loopy Coasters I used Dishie in the colors Inlet (soft blue), Swan (cream white), and Butterscotch (mustard yellow).
Dishie comes in a huge variety of colors, plus it has a nice feel to it! I love this yarn and highly recommend it!
Dishie is currently 20% off on the WeCrochet website so now’s a great time to stock up!

Notes
- CH 1 at the end of the row does not count as a ST. Work the 1st ST of the row into the last ST from the previous row.
- The number in (parentheses) at the end of the row represents the number of STs to be worked in that row.
- Puff ST x3 = work 1 Puff ST in each of the next 3 STs.
- To adjust the size of the coaster:
- Length: Work a foundation chain that is a multiple of 3+1. For a single color coaster work your foundation chain any length.
- Width: Work an odd number of rows the same length as the coaster. For a single color coaster work any number of rows the same length as the coaster.
- See the video tutorial for assistance.
special Stitches
Closed 2 HDC Puff Stitch
This pattern uses a variation of a puff stitch.
Even if you have worked a puff stitch before please read these instruction as puff stitches can be made a number of different ways and this may be different than others you have used.
How to:
- Yarn over and insert your hook into the ST.
- Yarn over and pull up a loop (3 loops on hook).
- Yarn over and insert your hook into the same ST.
- Yarn over and pull up a loop (5 loops on hook).
- Yarn over and pull through the 1st 4 loops on your hook (2 loops on hook).
- Yarn over and pull through the last 2 loops on your hook.
Changing Color
You will change color on the last (3rd) Puff ST before a new color starts. Start the Puff ST as normal, before the final pull through of the last 2 loops, drop your current color and pull through with the new color. The next Puff ST you work will be with the new color.
Carrying Yarn
This patten uses the tapestry crochet method, where you carry your non working yarn through your stitches. After joining the 2nd color, you will work your Puff STs around the non working yarn strand. This hides the strand but carries it over so it’s ready for the frequent color changes.

Border
Loosely SL ST down the left side of the coaster, working 2 SL STs in the side of each row down for a total of 14 STs. I worked 1 SL ST on the side of the Puff ST and the other at the botton of the Puff ST.
In the corner [SL ST, CH 1, SL ST].
Work 1 SL ST in each ST across the bottom.
Continue around the coaster, [SL ST, CH 1, SL ST] in the corners, 2 SL STs in each row up the side, and 1 SL ST in each ST across the top.
[SL ST, CH 1, SL ST] into the last ST from Row 7. Cut off yarn, leaving a long enough tail to weave in.
Weave in all ends on the backside of the coaster.
