There’s something about a quiet morning, a hot cup of coffee, and a hook in hand that feels like home. One Sunday morning, I sat down to crochet “just one” flower coaster to brighten up my coffee table—and let’s just say, that plan went out the window. A few hours (and several coasters) later, I was completely hooked. These sweet little Flower Coasters are quick, fun, and the perfect way to add a handmade touch to your space. Trust me, once you make one, you’ll be reaching for your yarn stash again and again. Ready to start your own little garden of coasters? Here’s the free pattern!
I’m obsessed with these Flower Coasters because of how fast they are to make. Once I had this easy crochet flower coaster pattern down, I found myself making them on autopilot during my evening TV time—this time it was a cozy rom-com binge. By the end of the week, I had a rainbow of coasters stacked up, ready to sprinkle all over my home. Now they live on my dining table, coffee table, even my nightstand—and they make me smile every time I see them.
The Best Material for Your Crochet Coaster
Cotton is hands-down the best yarn for crocheting coasters—and here’s why. It’s naturally absorbent, which means it soaks up condensation like a pro, and it won’t melt or warp under a hot mug the way synthetic yarns can. Cotton also has great stitch definition, so all your pretty patterns and petal details really pop. It holds its shape through wash after wash, making it perfect for everyday use. Plus, with so many gorgeous colors available, it’s easy to match your coasters to any vibe—whether you're going for bold and bright or soft and neutral.
But if you decide to make the flowers and use them just as decorations then you can use any other material you may have at home, like acrylic yarn or even jute.
