Crochet Coasters - Set of Four Thick Cotton Coasters

These crochet coasters come as a set of four, each about 10 cm across and worked thick enough to take a hot mug without the heat coming through to the table. The edge is finished firmly so it does not curl at the corners. They are bought for new homes, rented flats and anyone who has a wooden table they would like to keep unmarked.

How to choose the colours

Two colours work better than one. Standard crochet coasters use a main colour for the body and a second colour for the edge round, which frames the coaster and hides the joins. If you want all four the same, say so. If you want four different main colours with one shared edge, that is free too.

Dark shades hide tea rings between washes, pale shades look better on a dark table. Tell us the table and we will say which way round we would go. Other table and home pieces are in the handmade arts and crafts range.

How thick crochet coasters behave in use

Thickness is the thing that makes the difference. A thin doily slides and lets heat through. These are worked dense and double sided, so a full mug sits level and the table stays cool underneath. The same density is what stops them sliding when you lift a glass, which is the usual complaint about round mats.

Washing is simple and they come back the same size. Hand wash in cool water with mild soap, press the water out in a towel, pat the disc flat and let it dry away from the sun. Done that way a set of crochet coasters stays in service for years. Full care notes are in our amigurumi care guide.

Questions people ask

Are these crochet coasters heat proof?

They take a normal hot mug of tea or coffee comfortably. They are not made for a hot pan straight off the hob.

Can I order more than four?

Yes. Sets of six and eight are common for a dining table. Message us for a price before ordering.

Do they go in a washing machine?

We ask you to hand wash them. A machine cycle will not destroy them, but it will felt the edge over time.

Can you embroider initials on them?

Yes, a short name or a set of initials can be stitched on one or all four at no extra cost.

A set of crochet coasters makes an easy housewarming present on its own or beside something larger from the full handmade crochet shop.
