Unique Yarn Designs

Hello everyone! It’s been a few weeks since a pattern release, and I have four super cute coasters to share for Easter! First up is the Baby Chick Easter Coaster crochet pattern. If you are familiar with graph work, this pattern will be a breeze. I have written instructions below to accompany the graph, but I think you will find that the graph is the easiest way to get the color changes just right.

The next patterns in this mini Easter coaster series is the Little Bunny, Easter egg, and Easter basket. These coasters will make an excellent addition to your home decor this year and years to come. (Also, if you want to know what other posts have been planned for April, check out this most recent post with hints!)

Let’s Get Started!

• Difficulty: Easy
• Materials:
  • 4.5 mm crochet hook
  • Yarn needle/ darning needle
  • Lily Sugar n’ Cream- Hot Green
  • Lily Sugar n’ Cream- Yellow
  • Lily Sugar n’ Cream- Hot Orange
  • Small amount of Lily Sugar n’ Cream in Terra Firma (brown) for the eye
• Stitches used: chain, single crochet
• Other Techniques: color changing
  • I have not created a tutorial for color changing, so I recommend this tutorial from another designer if you need help. Let me know if you have questions!
• Abbreviations:
  • ch- chain
  • sc- single crochet
  • st- stitch
• Approximate size of finished coaster: 4″ x 4”

Tips Before Starting: No one likes to weave in a million pesky yarn ends from color changes! For this pattern, carry the yarn through for the yellow and orange parts instead of cutting after every row.

Instructions: Baby Chick Easter Coaster crochet pattern

Below is the graph for this pattern. This is a coaster made with single crochets, so each square on the graph is one single crochet stitch. In other words, this is 13 single crochets by 13 single crochets, and then we crochet a border around it.

Odd rows: Work left to right

Even rows: Work right to left

Making the Edge

I like to have a finished edge on all my projects, so I did a basic sc around the edge, making 3 sc in the corners. Do this twice.
