Materials Needed
- Yarn: Super bulky cotton yarn
- Hook: 8mm crochet hook
- Scissors: For cutting the yarn
- Tapestry needle: For weaving in ends
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Start with a Magic Ring:
To create a magic ring, hold the yarn in your hand and wrap it around your fingers to form a loop. Insert your hook into the loop, yarn over, and pull through to create a slip knot.
- Round 1:
Chain 2 (this counts as your first double crochet). Now, work 11 double crochets (dc) into the magic ring. Once you have completed the 11 dc, pull the tail of the yarn to tighten the ring. Join the round by making a slip stitch (sl st) into the top of the chain 2. You should have a total of 12 dc.
- Round 2:
Chain 2. In this round, you will work 2 dc in each stitch around. This means you will make 2 dc in each of the 12 stitches from the previous round. After completing this round, join with a sl st to the top of the chain 2. You should now have 24 dc.
- Round 3:
Chain 2. This round will alternate between 1 dc and 2 dc. Start by making 1 dc in the first stitch, then 2 dc in the next stitch. Repeat this pattern around the entire round. After finishing, join with a sl st to the top of the chain 2. You should have a total of 36 dc.
- Round 4:
Chain 1. In this round, you will create a textured pattern. Make 1 single crochet (sc) in the first stitch, then chain 1 and skip the next stitch. Repeat this pattern around the entire round. After completing the round, join with a sl st to the first single crochet you made.
- Finish Up:
Once you have completed Round 4, it’s time to finish your coaster. Cut the yarn, leaving a long tail. Pull the tail through the last loop on your hook to secure it. Use a tapestry needle to weave in any loose ends to the back of your coaster.
Congratulations! You have successfully created your very own chunky crochet circle coaster. Feel free to experiment with different colors and yarn types to create a unique set for your home!
