Plant Nest Coaster – Free Crochet Pattern
Please note: I have changed the stitch count for the worsted weight coaster. It now begins with 8 hdc. This helps the center lay flatter.

The Plant Nest Coaster is part of my Nest family of patterns. The first design was the Mug Nest Coaster and the next was the Can Nest. The Plant Nest Coaster is great piece to add to your home decor. Whether you’re a lover of house plants or just love a touch of handmade around your home.
The Plant Nest Coaster is perfect for any room of the house. Not a plant person. It makes the perfect decorative piece for anything you love to display on your table, shelves, etc. And it works up super fast. Before you know it, you’ll have more than you know what to do with! It also has a boho vibe, that I love.
The coaster uses two different types of yarn, with two styles. You can easily customize the coaster to your desired size.

Notes & Pattern:
The Plant Nest Coaster pattern is worked in continuous rounds, starting with a magic ring.
Use a stitch marker to mark the 1st st of each round.
Ch 1 does not count as a st.
To customize the size: Add or subtract as many rnds as you’d like. To add more rnds for a bigger coaster, keep following the pattern increases. Increasing each rnd by six Sts for Bulky, eight Sts for Worsted.
Bobble stitch:
*Yarn over, insert hook into stitch and pull up a loop, yarn over and pull through 2 loops on your hook rep * 3 more times. Now you should have 5 loops on your hook. Yarn over and pull through all 5 loops on your hook.
Front Loop Only (Flo)
Normally, you insert your hook under both the loops that make up that top V shape. To work in the front loop only, insert your hook under only the specified loop instead. The front loop will the bottom of the v shape, closest to you. (see Flo Rnd below)
