Succulent Coaster Pattern

Creating the Soil/Base

Start (Soil Section):
- With brown yarn, make a magic circle.
- Round 1: Ch 2 (counts as your first dc here and throughout), then 11 dc into the circle. Sl st to join.
- Round 2: Ch 2, dc inc in each stitch around. Join with sl st.
- Continue increasing in this manner for 1-2 more rounds, as needed for size.

Succulent Part

Switch to Green Yarn:
- With green yarn, attach to any dc on the round.
- Leaf Formation: Ch 1 (counts as your first sc), [dc, ch 2, sl st in the 2nd chain from hook (picot made), dc, sc] in the same stitch. Skip 2 stitches, and repeat brackets around for leaf formation. Adjust to ensure you end symmetrically.
Next Rounds:
- Adjust the leaf sizes as you like by adding more dc or using treble crochet (tr) for larger leaves. Work in a spiral, adding more rows of leaves and increasing their size gradually to mimic a succulent's growth pattern.
Final Touches:
- After achieving the desired size, fasten off and weave in ends for a neat finish.

Notes:

For a varied look, consider changing the leaf shape by adjusting the number of chains in your picots or incorporating different stitch heights (e.g., sc, hdc, dc, tr).
The size and thickness of your coaster can be adjusted by changing your hook size or yarn weight.

Below is a basic guide on how to crochet a pot pattern for your succulent coasters. This will create a simple, round pot that can be adjusted in size according to your needs.

Pot Pattern:

Materials

Terra Cotta or Brown Yarn (or any colour you prefer for the pot)
Crochet hook (Use a larger hook like 5mm if you want a looser, larger pot)
Scissors
Yarn needle

Step-by-step Instructions

Starting the Base:
- With your chosen yarn, make a magic circle.
- Round 1: Ch 2 (does not count as a stitch), 12 dc into the circle. Join with sl st to the first dc (12 dc).
- Round 2: Ch 2, 2 dc in each stitch around. Join with sl st (24 dc).
- Round 3: Ch 2, dc in the next stitch, 2 dc in the next stitch; repeat from * to * around. Join with sl st (36 dc).
- Continue with similar increases for 1 or 2 more rounds if a larger base is needed.
Building the Sides:
- Round 4: Ch 2, dc in each stitch around in the back loops only to create a defining line for the base of the pot. Join with sl st.
- Round 5: Ch 2, dc in each stitch around. Join with sl st.
- Repeat this round until you achieve the desired height for the pot. Generally, 3-4 more rounds are sufficient.
Creating the Rim:
- Final Round: To create a pronounced rim, you can either:
  - Option 1: Sc in each stitch, increasing every 3-5 stitches.
  - Option 2: Work hdc or dc in front loops only to create a lifted, decorative edge.
- Join with a sl st and fasten off. Weave in the ends for a clean finish.

Optional Adjustments:

Texturing: Add surface slip stitches in spiral or vertical lines for a textured clay pot effect.
Colour Work: Use different colours or variegated yarn to mimic decorative pots.
Handles: For a more detailed pot, you could add small loops or handles on either side at the top round.
