Daisy Crochet Coaster – Free Pattern with Japanese Stitch Chart

A cheerful, flower-like coaster inspired by the fresh, uplifting colors of spring.

The Daisy Coaster features a simple, airy double crochet structure that works up quickly into a gentle floral bloom. Because it avoids complicated cluster stitches (like bobbles or popcorns), it is an approachable, relaxing project suitable for beginners and seasoned makers alike.

Whether you are enjoying a mindful afternoon coffee or dressing up your seasonal tea table, I hope this small handmade piece brings a quiet touch of spring to your day.
