ABBREVIATIONS:
CH = Chain
HDC = Half Double Crochet
INC = Increase (Increase = 2 STS in same ST)
MR= Magic Ring
SC = Single Crochet
SL ST = Slip Stitch
SK = Skip
ST(S) = Stitch(es)
PATTERN INSTRUCTIONS:
Note 1 - This pattern begins with a Magic Ring (also known as a Magic Circle). An alternate method to begin your work is to start by chaining 2 and then working all stitches for Round 1 into the second chain from the hook. The chain 2 method to start may be easier if you are a beginner or not familiar with how to make a Magic Ring.
Note 2- I recommend using a stitch marker in the first stitch of each round throughout the pattern.
Note 3 - See the end of the pattern for additional instructions on how to form a Christmas tree by stacking the coasters and the additional pieces.
Note 4: I have provided links below to the exact yarn that I use to make this pattern. Please understand that I have no ability to know if/when a specific yarn may be discontinued or unavailable. Thank you!
Lion Brand 24/7 Cotton: JoAnn or Lion Brand
Caron All Day Cotton: Yarnspirations
Coaster (Make 4):
