About this book
The most unique crochet coaster pattern book you'll find! 20 carefully designed characters, from a classic Squirrel with Acorn to an unexpected Pink Wild Cat, collected in a beautifully printed paperback you can keep right next to your yarn basket. Open it on the sofa, flip to an animal and start stitching: no screen, no printer, just you, your hook and a little bit of yarn.
Many crocheters simply prefer paper. A real book stays open on your lap, never dims halfway through a round and never needs charging. You can pencil a tick next to each finished row, jot down the colors you used and slip a scrap of yarn between the pages as a bookmark.
This paperback is also part of the MrsCrochetWorld Coaster Collection by Ava Collins, a growing shelf of crochet pattern books that each focus on one theme. Here, the theme is animals: a whole farmyard, pond and forest full of characters that turn everyday crochet coasters into little works of personality.
Every coaster is a conversation starter, and every page is ready whenever you are.
Every design is written and test-crocheted by Ava, with step-by-step written instructions and photo tutorials for every pattern, so you can check your work against the pictures as you go.
3 different frog versions, 2 duck variations, and 2 lizard designs give you incredible variety. Plus one-of-a-kind characters like the Pink Wild Cat and Cockroach that you simply won't find in any other crochet book. Every coaster is a conversation starter!
The mix is what makes it fun. A quiet Penguin sits next to a proud Rooster, a sleepy Turtle next to a toothy Crocodile, and the single Flower design gives you a gentle break between all the animals. Whether you love cute, quirky or a little bit cheeky, there is a coaster here for your mood.
Each pattern walks you through one animal from start to finish. You begin with the coaster base, then crochet the character parts that give the animal its look, and finally put everything together and tidy the ends. The written steps tell you exactly what to do, while the photo tutorials show you what your piece should look like at each stage.
Because every pattern follows the same clear structure, the second coaster always feels easier than the first. Once you have finished one frog, the other two versions feel familiar, and you can concentrate on the details that make each one different.
The book is rated beginner to intermediate. Simpler animals are a good starting point if you are still building confidence, while characters with more pieces and color changes give experienced makers something to enjoy.
Techniques you will typically use for animal coasters like these include working in rounds, increasing to keep a flat circle flat, changing colors and sewing small character pieces onto the base. The instructions are written in US crochet terms, so if you learned with UK terms, keep a conversion chart nearby.
All patterns use DK or worsted weight yarn with a 3.5mm – 4.0mm hook. Cotton is a favorite for coasters because it soaks up condensation from cold drinks and copes well with hot mugs. A soft acrylic is fine for decorative pieces and offers plenty of vivid shades for the brighter animals.
Work with an even, slightly firm tension so the coaster stays flat under a mug. If your circle waves at the edge, try the smaller hook; if it curls up, try the larger one. Since most animals need only small amounts of each color, your leftover yarn stash will finally have a purpose.
Weave in all ends on the back, then let your coaster rest flat. A light steam can help a stubborn edge settle, but check your yarn label first. For everyday cleaning, a gentle hand wash in lukewarm water with mild soap, followed by drying flat, keeps the colors fresh and the shape neat. If the coasters will live in a home with small children, sew every character piece on firmly.
A printed pattern book is easy to flip through, mark up and share — a thoughtful gift for anyone who loves to crochet.
It suits birthdays, holidays and "just because" moments, and it pairs nicely with a few balls of cotton yarn and a new hook. For non-crocheters, you can use the book yourself and gift the results: a set of animal coasters tied with ribbon, or one coaster tucked under a new mug, makes a cheerful housewarming or teacher present.
