Are you ready to bring a touch of winter magic into your home? Today, I’m excited to share my crochet snowflake coaster pattern, perfect for beginners and experienced crocheters alike!
🌸 Detailed Crochet Snowflake Coaster Pattern
🧶 Materials:
- 2 colors of cotton yarn (Color A: center and petals, Color B: outline)
- 3.0 mm – 3.5 mm crochet hook
- Yarn needle
- Scissors
📖 Abbreviations (US Terms)
| Abbreviation | Meaning |
|---|---|
| MR | Magic Ring |
| ch | Chain |
| sl st | Slip Stitch |
| sc | Single Crochet |
| dc | Double Crochet |
| tr | Treble Crochet |
📝 Instructions:
Center Circle
Round 1 (Color A):
- Start with a Magic Ring (or ch 5, sl st to form a ring)
- ch 3 (counts as 1 dc)
- 11 dc into the ring (12 dc total)
- Join with a sl st to top of ch 3.
Round 2:
- ch 3 (counts as dc), dc in same stitch
- 2 dc in each stitch around (24 dc)
- Join with sl st to top of ch 3.
Round 3:
- ch 1, sc in each stitch around (24 sc)
- Join with sl st to first sc.
(Fastening off here is optional if switching colors — if not, continue.)
Petal Setup
Round 4 (switch to Color B):
- Join new color in any sc.
- ch 5 (counts as 1 dc + ch 2)
- skip 1 st, dc in next stitch, ch 2
- Repeat * around (12 dc, with ch-2 spaces)
- Join with sl st to 3rd ch of starting ch-5.
Petal Formation
Round 5:
- sl st into first ch-2 space.
- (sc, 3 dc, sc) in each ch-2 space around.
- Join with sl st to first sc.
This forms the rounded petal shape seen in your photo.
Optional Pointed Petals (if desired):
In each ch-2 space:
- (sc, dc, tr, ch 2, tr, dc, sc)
This will make each petal more pointed, similar to the snowflake shape.
Finishing Edge
Round 6:
- sl st to first sc of any petal.
- ch 3, sl st to next sc between petals.
- Repeat around to form picot-like edge.
This gives the flared snowy tips you see at each petal point.
🌼 Final Steps
- Fasten off and weave in all ends using a yarn needle.
- Gently block your coaster by pinning it to a foam board and lightly steaming (if your yarn permits).
✅ Notes:
- You can adjust petal size by adding extra dc or tr stitches.
- Alternate color placement: swap center and petal colors for variety.
- Works great as coasters, ornaments, or appliqués.
