I’ve been obsessed with crocheted daisies and sunflowers lately. I have about five different trial and error versions of daisies on my desk and I finally figured out a pattern that I love that has stitches that are easy to work with. Of course, making a cute circular motif isn’t enough… I had to figure out what to actually do with it. I polled my Instagram audience and most people wanted to see a functional item. So here it is! A quick and easy crochet daisy or crochet sunflower coaster pattern. Just use the appropriate colors for the flower of your choice. I think it’ll be a really great colorful flower coaster too!

My favorite thing to crochet is a baby blanket. And after trying about a dozen different patterns, I always come back to this ripple stitch pattern. It was one of the first “complex” patterns I learned to crochet and basically what motivated me to learn crochet in the first place. I’ve made this colorful swirly style by mixing one solid yarn with one cake yarn. Two worsted weight yarns worked together gives you a nice bulky weight to work with and finish your project quickly.

Want to keep your hands from freezing while you’re eating your ice cream? Yea, me too. With all my quick patterns, here’s another one for an ice cream cozy.
