Welcome! Today we’re looking at a sweet little Crochet Flower Bouquet Coaster, a handmade piece that brings a touch of spring to any table.
This coaster takes a round, flat base in soft white and frames it with a ring of pink, rounded petal-like bumps edged in leafy green. The result looks like a flower bouquet seen from above, which makes it a lovely everyday accent.
It suits anyone who enjoys quick, satisfying projects, and it is a favorite for spring gifts, housewarmings and handmade gatherings. The full step-by-step tutorial is in the video, and this page is here to help you prepare and crochet with confidence.

Skill Level
Easy. The base is worked in the round and the petals are built from a few simple clusters, so it is a comfortable project once you are used to working in rounds.

Materials
- Yarn: a light worsted or DK weight cotton yarn works well. Cotton holds its shape and is absorbent, which suits a coaster. Use white for the base, pink for the petals and green for the leafy edging.
- Hook: a 3.5 mm to 4 mm hook is a typical choice for cotton yarn at this weight. Adjust if your stitches look too loose or too tight.
- Scissors and a yarn or tapestry needle for weaving in ends.
Stitches and Abbreviations
- sc: single crochet. Insert the hook, yarn over, pull up a loop, yarn over and pull through both loops.
- dc: double crochet. Yarn over, insert the hook, pull up a loop, then work off two loops twice.
- ch: chain. Yarn over and pull through the loop on your hook to make a foundation stitch.
- sl st: slip stitch. Insert the hook, yarn over, and pull through both the stitch and the loop on the hook, used to join rounds and move across the work.
Pattern Notes
- US terms are used throughout, so check your abbreviations before you begin.
- Work the base in a spiral or joined rounds so the center stays flat and even.
- The petal bumps are worked in pink, so keep your tension steady for a neat, rounded look.
- Green edging sits between the petals and gives the bouquet its leafy frame.
- Edges may look slightly uneven before you give the coaster a gentle wet block.
How It’s Made
- Make the round white base, working outward in rounds until it is flat and sized to your liking.
- Add the first round of green edging so it sits neatly around the base.
- Work the pink petal bumps evenly around the outside, spacing them so each one sits between green points.
- Add a final green round to link the petals together and finish the bouquet frame.
- Weave in all loose ends carefully on the back of the coaster.
For the exact rounds and stitch counts, follow along with the video tutorial.
Assembly and Finishing Tips
Keep your tension consistent when moving from white to pink to green, since uneven tension is the most common cause of a wavy edge. Weave ends through the back of several stitches so they stay secure after washing.
A gentle wet block will help the petals sit evenly and the base lie flat. Lay the coaster on a towel, shape it gently with your hands, and let it dry fully before use.
Make It Yours
- Try a blue or lavender petal color for a cool, calming set.
- Make a larger version in a darker base color to use as a trivet.
- Use variegated pink yarn for a soft, layered look among the petals.
- Make a set of four in matching colors as a thoughtful housewarming gift.
