They’re not just good for holding your drinks – they also make lovely home pieces or thoughtful presents. Each coaster has leafy edges and a smart design that folds into a pot. When not used, they look like tiny potted succulents, adding cheer and creativity to your table or countertop.
Materials Recommendations for Perfect Succulent Coasters
Each coaster needs less than 20 yards of DK weight yarn, which makes it a great way to use up scraps. Soft cotton or a cotton blend is perfect, as it soaks up spills well. For the pots, a slightly thicker yarn, like aran weight cotton, will give them a sturdy shape that holds up nicely.
Tips for Crafting Realistic Succulent Coasters
These crochet coasters are worked in the round with double crochet clusters and chain spaces to create a delicate lace pattern.
Keep your clusters tight – it will make your coasters look polished and even. Pay special attention to the leafy edges – they make the design pop!
