How to crochet the Buffalo Plaid Shay Coasters, worked in simple single crochet stitches.

I do want to mention though that this pattern is more advanced because of carrying the yarns, but definitely something a confident beginner could do!

You can also use this little square as a mini washcloth, or large facial scrubbie.

Video tutorial included.

Materials:

• Less than 2 Yards per Square & 10 Yards for the Border of Worsted Weight Cotton Yarn - I used WeCrochet Dishie in Black, White, Silver, Fiesta Red & Pomegranate
• H8/5mm Hook for Body
• Tapestry Needle
• Optional, Jewelry Pliers

Material Notes:
Yarn Alternatives: Lily Sugar n Cream, Red Heart’s Smoothie, Crafters Secret Cotton

If you are only making a coaster that will house a cold or hot beverage, you can use acrylic as an alternative with an I9/5.5mm hook - just do not put anything fresh from the oven on the acrylic coaster, or you will melt the fibers and risk burning yourself.

Other Recommended Yarns (with I9/5.5mm Hook): Red Heart’s Super Saver, Caron’s One Pound, Bernat’s Super Value, WeCrochet Swish, WeCrochet Brava, Lion Brand Wool Ease

Jewelry pliers are an excellent tool to use to help weave in ends, as cotton yarn can be quite tough on the fingers when weaving in with just fingers and a tapestry needle.

Time:
45 minutes each

4” by 4.25” (or 4 1/4”)

Gauge, Not Essential; With H8/5mm Hook:
- In Pattern before Adding Border: 3.63” (or 3 5/8”) Square

Abbreviations (US Terms):
