Materials Needed:

• DK weight, 100% cotton yarn in two contrasting colors
• 5mm crochet hook (adjust hook size according to your crochet tension)
• Scissors
• Darning needle for weaving in ends

Pattern Overview:

• The coasters are made in rounds, starting from a magic ring and working towards creating a snowflake-like center followed by layers that build a round coaster with a distinct two-color pattern. Adjustments in hook size may be required based on your crochet tension for the optimal shape and size of the coasters.

Step-by-Step Pattern:

Round 1 (Light color yarn):

• Start with a magic ring.
• Chain 2 (counts as the first half of a double crochet two together (dc2tog)).
• Yarn over, insert the hook into the ring, yarn over, pull through two loops on the hook.
• Yarn over and pull through all loops on the hook, completing a dc2tog.
• Chain 2, then repeat the dc2tog in the ring, followed by ch2, six times in total.
• Join with a slip stitch to the first dc2tog.

Round 2 (Dark color yarn):

• Attach dark yarn with a slip stitch to any chain space.
• Make 3 double crochets in the same chain space, chain 1. Repeat from to in each chain space around.
• Join with a slip stitch to the first double crochet.

After Round 3 (Switch back to light yarn):

• Work a standing single crochet in any chain-1 space from the previous round.
• Chain 1, single crochet in the next chain-1 space. Repeat around.
• Join with a slip stitch to the first single crochet.

Round 4 (Continue with light yarn):

• Chain 2 (counts as the first half of a half double crochet).
• In each chain space around, work 2 half double crochets separated by 1 chain.
• Join with a slip stitch to the top of the first half double crochet.

Round 5:

Using light-colored yarn:

• Work a double crochet in the space between every two halves of the half double crochets from the previous round, chaining 2 between each double crochet.

Using dark-colored yarn (creating a layer over the light yarn layer):

• Work a double crochet three together (dc3tog) in each of the chain spaces between double crochets from the light-colored layer, separated by 2 chains.

For Round 6 (Finishing Round with light yarn):

• Work half double crochets around, according to the established pattern, ensuring to blend the last two rounds’ patterns harmoniously for a neat finish.
• Close the round with a slip stitch, weave in all ends securely.
