I designed this Flower Coasters Crochet Pattern back in March 2014. I was running a 5 week course and some students had finished their projects early. Since they were beginners and hadn’t yet tried the treble crochet stitch, I came up with this project specifically to practice this stitch through repetition!
Since I have not been able to teach in the flesh this year due to COVID, I will be working through my back catalogue of patterns and classes that I have created over the last 7 years with a view to sharing them with you. So with that in mind, please do keep an eye on my website and YouTube channel. Please sign up to my newsletter so that I can let you know what I’ve got for you!

Crochet is my gift to the world. It sounds cheesy, but actually, inspiring people to craft and make things with their hands is so important and so fundamentally human. In a world of instant gratification and quick fixes, crochet can be a vital and often healing past time.
