These stylish crochet coasters are a great way to use up left-over yarn! You can use any combination of colors to create a really unique and colorful set; your scrap bag is your oyster! The coasters are worked holding 2 strands of yarn together to create a striking ombre effect. Any cotton #3/DK or #4/worsted weight yarn would work great; I used DK so, if you use worsted you'll end up with a larger coaster of course!

TagsMug Rug Coaster Set
You will love the look of this set of coasters on your coffee table. Make these for yourself or as a gift. This pattern uses a worsted weight #4 cotton yarn. What makes the set unique is that the pattern includes 2 designs to make a set of 4 coasters. Both coasters use the sames stitches (double crochet and single crochet) but the placement of those stitches is what makes the 2 coasters patterns different.

Shay Coasters
The Shay Coaster is an easy crochet project worked in simple single crochet stitches. You can also use this little square as a mini washcloth too. You'll need just a small amount of worsted weight cotton yarn per coaster, making this a great stashbusting/scrap yarn project. I used WeCrochet Dishie Yarn for mine. If you are only making a coaster that will house a cold or hot beverage, you can use acrylic yarn (like Red Heart Super Saver) as an alternative with an I9/5.5mm hook - just do not put anything fresh from the oven on the acrylic coaster, or you will melt the fibers and risk burning yourself. I was able to work up one coaster in just under 20 minutes.
