Whimsical Pumpkin Coaster

By Alexandra of EyeLoveKnots.

How to crochet a whimsical pumpkin coaster that is perfect for Fall decorating or on the Thanksgiving table under some Pumpkin Spice coffee. I was able to work up one coaster in just over 15 minutes.

Materials

You’ll need a H8/5mm crochet hook, and 20 yards of worsted weight cotton yarn per coaster – I used WeCrochet Dishie for mine, but Lily Sugar n Cream, Bernat Handicrafter and Red Heart Smoothie are good alternatives. If you are only making a coaster that will house a cold or hot beverage, you can use acrylic as an alternative (like Red Heart Super Saver) 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.
