Landon Coasters – Free Crochet Pattern | Easy Moss Stitch Coasters

November 24, 2022

This is a free crochet pattern and video tutorial showing how to crochet the Landon Coasters – an easy coaster pattern worked in the moss stitch aka the linen stitch, which is comprised of simple single crochets and chains.

My Landon series is an easy crochet line that features the moss stitch aka the linen stitch, which is comprised of simple single crochet stitches and chains. It creates such a beautiful, woven texture.

My Landon Washcloths would make a great matching piece if you wanted to gift (or use for yourself) in a kitchen themed gift (the coasters can be used as such for beverages and candles, or as mini washcloths), or in a spa themed gift (the coasters can be used as such for candles and small vases, or as large facial scrubbies).

My Landon Hand Towel also is a great matching piece, and it can fit into each of the above gift ideas too!

What Supplies Do I Need to Crochet a Coaster?

  • 25 Yards (each) of Worsted Weight Cotton Yarn – I used WeCrochet Dishie Yarn in the Silver colorway
  • H8/5mm Crochet Hook for Body
  • G6/4.25mm Crochet Hook for Border
  • Tapestry Needle
  • Optional, Jewelry Pliers

Material Notes:

Yarn Alternatives: Lily Sugar n Cream, Red Heart Smoothie, Crafters Secret Cotton

Dishie Yarn is a touch thinner than Lily Sugar n Cream – you may need to go down a hook size with this yarn if it’s your choice, though gauge is not essential in this project if the finished size isn’t.

If you are only making a coaster that will house a cold or hot beverage, you can use acrylic 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.

If you wanted to use a wool or synthetic, some great yarns I recommend are {wools} WeCrochet Swish, Lion Brand Wool Ease, {non-wools} WeCrochet Brava, and Red Heart Super Saver with an I9/5.5mm crochet hook for the body.

I usually recommend jewelry pliers 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. Dishie Yarn is really smooth, and easy to weave the yarn in and out of.

How Long Does it Take to Crochet a Coaster?

Each coaster took me about 25 minutes to work up.

Measurements:

4.13” (or 4 ⅛”) Square

Gauge, Not Essential; With H8/5mm Crochet Hook:

  • In a Swatch: (chain 1 space + single crochet) * 10 = 4″ wide; 18 Rows = 4.13″ (or 4 1/8″) tall
  • In Pattern, Before Adding Border: 4.63″ (or 4 5/8″) Square

Abbreviations (US Terms):

  • SC – Single Crochet (Photo Tutorial)
  • Rev SC – Reverse Single Crochet

Pattern Notes:

Beginning chain 1 does not count as a stitch.

Each single crochet and each chain are considered a stitch. In the moss stitch pattern, you are working a two row repeat that staggers the stitches with single crochets worked over the previous rows chain 1 spaces, and vice versa.

The chain multiple is any even number. After you work row 1, you’ll end up with an odd number of stitches. To vary the height, just make sure to end on an even number of rows so the border will still work out evenly.

Landon Coasters, Video Tutorial:

Landon Coasters, Written Pattern:

With H8/5mm hook, chain 18. SC into the 2nd chain from the hook, (chain 1, skip the next chain, SC into the next chain) 8x. (8 chain 1 spaces, 9 SC)

R2: Chain 1, turn. SC into the 1st SC, SC into the next chain space, (chain 1, skip the next stitch, SC into the next stitch) 7x, SC into the last SC.

R3: Chain 1, turn. SC into the 1st SC, (chain 1, skip the next stitch, SC into the next stitch) 8x.

R4 – 14: Repeat Rows 2 + 3.

Switch to G6/4.25mm crochet hook for border.

Border, R1: Chain 1, turn. SC into the 1st stitch, and into each stitch and chain space across to the last stitch, (SC, chain 1, SC) into the last stitch, evenly SC (that’s one SC per row) down 13 stitches, (SC, chain 1, SC) into the last stitch, SC 15 across the opposite side of the foundation chain, (SC, chain 1, SC) into the last stitch, evenly SC up 13 stitches, SC into the same stitch as the first, chain 1, then slip stitch join to the first SC. [4 chain 1 spaces + 64 SC]

R2: Chain 1. [Rev SC into the chain space, Rev SC into the next SC, (chain 1, skip 1 stitch, Rev SC into the next stitch)] 7x, repeat […] 8x, repeat […] 7x, repeat […] 8x. In a reverse direction as well, slip stitch into the first stitch, and then fasten off (or fasten off, and then join similar to that of invisible join just mimicking the look of the other stitches.)

Weave in ends.

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.
