Versatile Round Crochet Pattern. This universal round pattern is perfect for a variety of handmade items: potholders, coasters, hot pads, placemats, rugs.

Jute cord is such a beautiful and eco-friendly material for handmade items like this. When you steam it with an iron, it actually smells like dried grass — so natural and earthy!
It holds its shape really well and adds a lovely rustic texture to the final piece. It can be a bit rough on the hands while working with it, but trust me — the result is totally worth it!

Jute coasters or potholders make a wonderful housewarming gift — or just a thoughtful “just because” present. Especially when they’re made with care and love.

You can use different types of yarn depending on what you’d like to make. Choose a hook size that matches your yarn.
