This pattern uses the EVEN MOSS STITCH. You do not need to learn how to create this stitch prior to starting this pattern. The pattern will simply follow the appropriate stitch repetition.

MATERIALS:
Crochet Hook: 4.5mm
Yarn: About 24 yds of cotton, weight 4 (Recommended: Lion Brand 24/7 Cotton)
Extras: Yarn needle, scissors

The recommended yarn for this pattern is 24/7 Cotton by Lion Brand. This yarn is mercerized which gives it added durability, a shinier look, and incredible stitch definition. The unique texture of this yarn helps to wick away water so your coaster won’t look wet after holding a cold drink. The cotton fiber also makes it more absorbent to keep your surfaces dry and protected. Mercerized cotton works best for this pattern, however, any cotton yarn would be a good substitute.
