Tip:

Use sturdy, cotton yarn to ensure durability and easy maintenance of your coasters.

Materials Needed:

• Size G crochet hook
• Worsted weight yarn

Pattern:

• Start with a slip stitch.
• Chain 12.
• In the 11th chain from the hook, make a single crochet.
• In the next chain, make a half double crochet.
• Chain 1, then single crochet into the middle stitch (likely 9th chain from the start).
• Single crochet in the 10th and again in the 9th chain from the start to create the base of the leaf.

Creating the first eye (loop) of the leaf:

• Chain 5.
• Count back 3 chains, and in the 3rd chain, pull through a loop and chain 1.
• In this loop, make a half double crochet.
• Follow with one double crochet.
• Make another half double crochet.
• Finish the loop with three single crochets.

Connecting to the stem:

• Make a single crochet into the next two chains along the initial chain.

Creating the second eyelet:

• Chain 5.
• Go back into the 4th chain, pull through and single crochet.
• Make a half double.
• Add two double crochets in succession.
• Step down with a half double crochet.
• Make three single crochets.

Connecting to the stem:

• Single crochet into the next two stitches along the stem.

Creating larger eyelets:

• For the last two eyelets of the leaf, chain 6 instead of 5.
• Count 5 chains and pull through a loop, then chain 1.
• Fill this loop with five double crochets.
• Step down with a half double.
• Finish with three single crochets.

Working up the other side of the stem:

• Make a single crochet into the next two stitches along the stem.
• For the last eyelet, chain 6.
• Count 5 stitches, pull through and chain 1.
• Proceed as before with the pattern (five double crochets, a half double, and three single crochets).

Completing the first half:

• Slip stitch into the last chain to close it off.
• Chain 1 and single crochet all the way down the opposite side of the initial chain (should be 12 single crochets).
• Chain 1 to turn, then proceed back the way you came, replicating exactly the pattern already completed but this time on the other side.

Final touches:

• Pull and shape the eyelets to form the leaf clearly.
• Weave in any ends and block your work to finish, if necessary.
