Although This is listed as one size, you can alter the finished size by changing the yarn or hook used. I also crocheted this with a 4.5mm crochet hook and while slightly smaller it’s still a decent coaster size.

Skill Level – Intermediate

While this is a simple design I’m placing it under intermediate because we need to work behind some stitches.

Notes:

• beg ch1 doesn’t count as a stitch we are working in the round
• if you sl st tightly consider going up a hook size for the sl st rounds.
• number in front of the stitch indicates how many of that stitch we are working 2sc = work a single crochet in the next 2 sts.
• instructions in ( ) = work in the same st. to keep track of all the sts in the round, instructions are separated by bullet points
