The dense, textured petals are not only beautiful but also functional, protecting your surfaces from heat and moisture. Let's dive into this delightful project that combines yarn art with practical home decor.

Materials Needed

Before you begin, gather the following supplies to ensure a smooth crocheting experience:

• Yarn: Worsted weight cotton yarn in four colors:
  • Burgundy (Color A) – for the center
  • Dusty Rose (Color B) – for the second petal layer
  • Sage Green (Color C) – for the third petal layer
  • Cream (Color D) – for the outer petal layer
• Hook: 4.0 mm (G) crochet hook
• Notions: Yarn needle for weaving in ends, sharp scissors

Gauge: The first 3 rounds should measure 2 inches in diameter. This ensures your coaster will finish at approximately 4 inches across. If your gauge is off, simply adjust your hook size accordingly.

Step-by-Step Instructions

This pattern uses standard US crochet abbreviations. Familiarize yourself with these before starting:

• MR: magic ring
• ch: chain
• sl st: slip stitch
• sc: single crochet
• hdc: half double crochet
• dc: double crochet
• tr: treble crochet
• rnd: round
• inc: increase (2 sc in same stitch)

Round 1: The Center Foundation

With Color A (burgundy), make a magic ring. Chain 2 (this counts as your first half double crochet). Work 11 half double crochets into the ring. Join with a slip stitch to the top of the beginning chain 2. You should now have 12 half double crochets total. This forms the dense, tight center of your rosewood bloom.

Round 2: Expanding the Base

Chain 2 (counts as first hdc). Work 1 hdc in the same stitch (this is your increase). Then, work 2 hdc in each stitch around the circle. Join with a slip stitch to the top of the beginning chain 2. You will now have 24 half double crochets. This round creates a flat, sturdy base for your coaster.

Round 3: Creating the First Petal Loops

Chain 1, then single crochet in the same stitch. *Chain 3, skip 1 stitch, single crochet in the next stitch.* Repeat from * to * around the circle, ending with a chain 3, skip the last stitch, and join with a slip stitch to the first single crochet. You should have 12 chain-3 loops. These loops will form the foundation for your first layer of petals.

Round 4: The Burgundy Petals

Slip stitch into the first chain-3 loop. Chain 1. In each chain-3 loop around, work the following petal sequence: (sc, hdc, 3 dc, hdc, sc). Join with a slip stitch to the first single crochet. Fasten off Color A and weave in the end. You've just completed 12 beautiful burgundy petals that form the heart of your flower.

Round 5: Preparing the Second Layer

Join Color B (dusty rose) with a slip stitch in the back loop of any single crochet from Round 3 (this is the base of a petal). Chain 1, single crochet in the same stitch. *Chain 4, single crochet in the back loop of the next single crochet from Round 3.* Repeat from * to * around, ending with a chain 4, and join with a slip stitch to the first single crochet. You'll have 12 chain-4 loops. Working in the back loops creates a beautiful layered effect.

Round 6: The Dusty Rose Petals

Slip stitch into the first chain-4 loop. Chain 1. In each chain-4 loop around, work: (sc, hdc, 5 dc, hdc, sc). Join with a slip stitch to the first single crochet. Fasten off Color B and weave in the end. These slightly larger petals will peek out from behind the burgundy center, adding depth and dimension.

Round 7: Setting Up the Third Layer

Join Color C (sage green) with a slip stitch in any chain-1 space between the petals from Round 6. Chain 1, single crochet in the same space. *Chain 5, single crochet in the next chain-1 space between petals.* Repeat from * to * around, ending with a chain 5, and join with a slip stitch to the first single crochet. You'll have 12 chain-5 loops.

Round 8: The Sage Green Petals

Slip stitch into the first chain-5 loop. Chain 1. In each chain-5 loop around, work: (sc, hdc, 7 dc, hdc, sc). Join with a slip stitch to the first single crochet. Fasten off Color C and weave in the end. The sage green adds a fresh, botanical contrast to the warm rose tones.

Round 9: Preparing the Final Layer

Join Color D (cream) with a slip stitch in any chain-1 space between the petals from Round 8. Chain 1, single crochet in the same space. *Chain 6, single crochet in the next chain-1 space between petals.* Repeat from * to * around, ending with a chain 6, and join with a slip stitch to the first single crochet. You'll have 12 chain-6 loops.

Round 10: The Cream Outer Petals

Slip stitch into the first chain-6 loop. Chain 1. In each chain-6 loop around, work: (sc, hdc, 9 dc, hdc, sc). Join with a slip stitch to the first single crochet. Fasten off and weave in all ends. These final petals are the largest, creating a beautiful, ruffled outer edge that gives the coaster its signature three-dimensional floral appearance.

Finishing Touches

Gently block your coaster to flatten and shape the petals. To block, simply mist the coaster with water and gently press it flat with your hands, then allow it to dry completely. This will help the petals lie beautifully and the coaster to sit perfectly flat on your table.

Repeat the entire pattern to create a set of 4 or 6 coasters. They stack beautifully and make a wonderful handmade gift for housewarmings, weddings, or just because. The muted, earthy colors and dense texture make these coasters both practical and a true piece of yarn art.

Enjoy your crocheted botanical treasure! These rosewood blooms are sure to become a cherished part of your home decor.
