The Pattern
It’s time to serve your coffee in style! The For the Love of Tulips Coaster is not your ordinary granny square coaster. The crisp cotton fiber worked with an undersized hook creates loads of stitch definition and a thick, durable fabric.
The lacey stitches breathe a vintage vibe throughout the design, while the rows of plump tulip flowers peeking out truly transform this motif into a modern crochet décor piece.

Make your very own three-dimensional tulip coaster with this detailed pattern! The printable PDF pattern includes 14 pages of detailed instructions, tips & tricks, as well as 45 step-by-step tutorial photos.
One coaster takes roughly 2 hours to complete, but before you finish your first, I guarantee you’ll already be planning your color combos for the next ones!

The level required to successfully complete this pattern can be classified as intermediate, but you could crochet this coaster as an upper beginner too, if you’re willing to take on a challenge!
In this pattern you will find detailed instructions, a bunch of tips & tricks, as well as step-by-step pictures to help you along the way. I provide detailed explanations for pretty much everything you need to know, except for the absolute basics such as the slip knot, slip stitch, chain, single crochet and double crochet.
For the best experience, you should already be comfortable with working the bead stitch and working in the front and back loops, or at least be open to learning with the help of my written instructions and pictures.
