Crochet Strawberry Coaster Pattern

Liven up your mornings and coffee breaks with cute crochet strawberry coasters! Check out my free Crochet Strawberry Coaster Pattern below.

One of the best gifts you can crochet quickly for someone is a small coaster set. So why not make them super duper cute! Best part is that a strawberry crochet coaster only takes 20 minutes to make, if that! 

Strawberries are currently trending and are a part of a lot of aesthetic vibes - cottagecore, kawaii, etc. I personally love strawberries because they are one of my favorite fruits to eat in summer. So delicious and cute! 

Crochet strawberries are actually easy to make, as long as you have a pointy end and a rounded top you're basically good to go, just add leaves and white lines! 

If you are looking for crochet strawberry patterns I highly suggest taking a gander at my crochet strawberry pillow pattern, crochet strawberry keychain, and crochet strawberry bag.

✏️ Things To Note:

1. The crochet strawberry coasters use cotton yarn since it is great at absorbing moisture and heat resistant. Do not use acrylic when making coasters, it is plastic and can melt under high heats. It is also not great at absorbing liquids.
2. Stick to a size 4 worsted weight yarn or thinner. Chunkier yarns create more texture and are super puffy, which unfortunately can make cups unstable and tip more easily.
3. The strawberry crochet coaster pattern makes the crochet strawberries end size be roughly 4.5inches tall and about 4 inches wide, perfect for most cup sizes, but if you need to make them bigger and another row of increases before doing the rows of the same stitch count.

Row 1: Ch x2 and turn.

Row 2: In the second chain from the hook, make an inc. (2) Then ch x1 and turn (for this next row and every row afterwards you will make a turning chain, but do not work in it. It’s to help turn your work).

Row 3: Inc x2 (4). Then ch x1 and turn.

Row 4: Inc, sc x2, inc (6). Then ch x1 and turn.

Crochet Strawberry Stem and Leaves:

This pattern is made one stem/leaf at a time.

Step 1: Ch x3,

then in the second ch from the hook make a sc, then make a sc in the following stitch. This is the stem.

Step 2: Ch x4

and in the second ch from the hook make a sc. Then sc in the following 2 chains. Then sl st back to the stitch where you broke off and made chains for the first leaf.

Step 3: Repeat step 2, 3 more times.

Finishing:

Sew the strawberry stem and leaves to the top part of the strawberry.

With white yarn and tapestry needle, crochet little v’s onto the strawberry. They look like little hearts which add additional cuteness to the coaster!

Weave in any loose ends.

And now you have an adorable crochet strawberry coaster made from my crochet strawberry coaster pattern! A perfect coaster for placing coffee and tea mugs!

🐌Expert Tips

Sew on the stem and leaves before adding the embroidery so you don’t cover up any of your embroidery work.
