Crochet Star Coaster

About These Star Coasters

• These crochet star coasters work up quickly and are a great beginner project.
• Once you have made a few of these and understand the pattern, you can make each in about 20 minutes.
• These coasters have a repetitive pattern, and increases are worked in every round because of this, you can easily increase the rounds to make a matching star table centerpiece, placemats, cushions, and more.
• You could even use these crocheted stars to make Christmas tree ornaments by adding a decorative bow or use them to make a holiday-themed garland or bunting.
• These can even be used as appliques on items like bags, scarves, blankets and more to create unique items.
• Make them in themed colors to match occasions like Memorial Day, Christmas, Valentine's Day, or Thanksgiving.
• This is a free crochet pattern. You can find a printable pattern card at the end of this post.
