Crochet Coasters!

What you'll need,

-yarn (cotton works best)
-crochet hook size G or H
-stitch marker or safety pin (you can also use a paperclip)

Make a slipknot, then chain 2

In the second chain (or first chain you made) , make 6 double crochets in the same stitch.

Make 2 double crochets in each stitch. You should have 12 stitches.
Make a single crochet, then insert the stitch marker.

In every other stitch make 2 double crochets. You should have 18 stitches.
After each row move the stitch marker to the last row you completed.
On each new row, you should skip one more stitch than the last one.
So, 3 single crochets, then 2 double crochets (in a single stitch)
Then, 4 single crochets, 2 double crochets (in a single stitch)
and so on, until you have reached your desired size.

Fasten off and trim ends, then voila! You have your very own, handmade coaster!

P.S. The sizes may vary some...I have yet to make two identical coasters!
