Crochet Tulip Bouquet Coaster

Materials:

• Yarn (preferably the type mentioned in the video)
• 3mm crochet hook

Pattern:

Start:

Magic Ring:

• Start with a white color yarn. Make a magic ring by placing the yarn between your fingers and use the crochet hook as described to create the ring.

Round 1:

Chain 3:

• These count as the first double crochet.

Double Crochets:

• Make 11 double crochets into the magic ring, for a total of 12 stitches when including the initial chain 3.

Slip Stitch:

• Close the round with a slip stitch into the third chain of the starting chain-3.

Round 2:

Chain 3:

• Start the new round with a chain of 3.

Double Crochets:

• In the same space as the chain 3, and in each stitch around, make two double crochets (resulting in 2 double crochets into each space from the previous round). By the end, you should aim for 24 double crochets in total.

Slip Stitch:

• Join the round with a slip stitch to the third of the starting chain-3.

After Round 3:

Chain 3:

• As before, start the round with a chain-3.

Alternating Double Crochets:

• In the next stitch, make two double crochets in the same space (considered as one double crochet pair).
• Then, make one double crochet in the following stitch.
• Continue this pattern (two double crochets in one stitch, one double crochet in the next) around.

Color Change:

• Before completing the round, introduce a new color by attaching it with a slip stitch then proceed with 3 chains.

Round 4:

Pattern Continuation:

• With the new color, follow the pattern described above, making chains and double crochets as instructed, including one double crochet, chain, and skipping stitches as outlined.

Closure:

• Complete this round as previously, adding one chain before attaching with a slip stitch to the third chain of the beginning chain-3.

Final Round:

Decorative Edge:

• Change the color (optional) and then create a decorative edge by working between the V shapes described. This involves making slips stitches, chains, and crochet stitches into specific loops and spaces to create a finishing border.

Fastening Off:

• Once the final round is complete, cut the yarn, leaving a length to weave in the ends. Hide the yarn ends with a needle to give your project a neat finish.
