Pot of Mums Flower Coaster Crochet Pattern

This cute flower pot of mums crochet pattern offers a creative and functional twist. The flower pot contains 4 coasters that, when stacked or placed together, mimic a full blooming arrangement. Each coaster resembles a vibrant mum flower, using autumn hues like orange, red, and yellow. These coasters double as the decorative flowers, which are then arranged inside a small crocheted pot.

The coasters use basic stitches with increases. The flower pot uses post stitches for a bit of texture. Use any number of mum colors for a full fall arrangement.

This pattern was created for the Craft Yarn Council’s new initiative Yarnsgiving . . . . which means “making with yarn and giving to others”.

Yarnsgiving will run from “I Love Yarn Day” on October 12th to Giving Tuesday on December 3rd, and is all about making and sharing handcrafted yarn projects with those around us and supporting charitable causes.
