Seeing Stars Coasters – Free Crochet Pattern

July 10, 2019

This post contains affiliate links for LoveCrafts. If you make a purchase by clicking on them, I make a small commission at no extra cost to you. Thanks for your support!

It’s time again for the Inspire My Creativity Challenge! This is a monthly craft blog hop, and each month, there is a different theme. This month’s theme is STARS. If you have a post that fits that theme, feel free to link up too!

Originally, I was envisioning a banner made up of these stars for the 4th of July, but I didn’t get around to making it in time for holiday decorating, so I decided to just have coasters instead. I have really been toying with the idea of a patriotic themed home lately, so these could be perfect for that too!

If you would like a PDF version of this post, you may get one through either my EyeLoveKnots Etsy Shop, Ravelry or LoveCrafts Shop for a small fee. This fee is to compensate for the views lost when you no longer need to return to the blog to for the information, as you will have your own copy. Plus! It helps fund supplies for new projects to share with you!

Shop EyeLoveKnots Etsy: Seeing Stars Coasters.

Are you a Raveler? Share your version of this project on Ravelry – Seeing Stars Coasters.

Materials:

  • Small Amount of Worsted Weight Cotton Yarn – I used Lily Sugar n Cream in the White, Red and Dazzling Blue colorways
  • H8/5mm Crochet Hook
  • Tapestry Needle for Weaving in Ends
  • Optional, Jewelry Pliers

Material Notes:

Yarn Alternatives: Bernat Handicrafter, Paintbox Yarns Cotton Aran, Rico Creative Cotton Aran, Crafter’s Secret Cotton Yarn (from Hobby Lobby)

Jewelry pliers are an excellent tool to use to help weave in ends, as cotton yarn can be quite tough on the fingers when weaving in with just fingers and a tapestry needle.

To make a larger coaster to accomodate a larger mug surface, go up a hook size or two.

Time Spent:

About 10 minutes per star

Measurements:

Space for Cup: 2.25″

Total from one point across to another: 4″

Pattern:

So Google doesn’t penalize me for duplicate information, please see my Star Applique Free Crochet Pattern, and use the materials listed in this post.

These are peanut butter covered graham cracker balls I found at my local Walmart – they are AMAZING!

    These coasters are cute. And I like the idea of using it for a bowl of treats. My mind goes straight to a mug.

      Haha. I was going to use it with a cup of coffee, but I drank it too quickly. This was the next best thing I could think of.

    I love your little stars. They would make a great banner or bunting. Thanks for joining in Ginx Woolly Linx for July.

Welcome!

Welcome!

Hey! I'm Alexandra, the blogger and creator behind EyeLoveKnots and On Rockwood Lane! My passion is being creative. My favorite thing to do is crochet, and you will almost always find me having a cup of coffee and working on a new crochet project, but when I'm not doing that, you might find me out at a local park rollerblading, baking some fresh cookies, picking veggies in the garden or re-decorating for a new season or holiday. My two cats are great supervisors for all my adventures (minus the being outside because they think it's too hot in Florida to be anywhere but inside), and make sure I take plenty of breaks.

Meet the Team!
