Good afternoon.

Today I thought that it would be nice to decorate the kitchen with all sorts of knitted things. I decided to start with small crochet coasters.

It turns out such knitting for the kitchen))).

I knitted a stand of Iris threads (100% cotton, 25 g / 150 m) with a hook of 1.15. Such coaster for a cup crochet knit according to the pattern. (To enlarge, click on the image)

Knitting order:

1. Dial 12 air loops pink thread and make a ring. In the 1st row we knit 24 columns without a crochet.

We knit 11 VP, then 3 VP lifting and in the opposite direction 13 columns with a crochet. At the same time, in the first 3 air loops (out of 11 dialed), we knit 2 columns each, and in the rest 7 - one at a time.

We attach the petal to the next arch with a single crochet. And we continue by tying 11 air loops again.

Then we knit alternately a double crochet and VP, starting from the 5th column of the previous petal.

3 VP lifting and back, just like knitting for the first time.

We continue to knit according to the pattern until we get 12 petals.

Having attached the 12th petal with a single crochet in the first arch, we knit the first petal. We knit semi-columns (or connecting columns), and then 3 lifting VPs and attach to the 1st petal. In the diagram, this place is highlighted in purple.

Flipping work

We turn the work again and tie the petal.

We fasten and cut the thread.

Potholder "Spiral" crochet

The potholder can also be used as a hot napkin. Crochet potholders "Spiral" will require wool blend yarn of two colors and hook number 4. Knit with single crochet, insert the hook under both sides of the chain of the previous round. On the rise of the next circle air loop do not do it. To prevent constrictions from being visible on the wrong side of the work, when switching from one thread color to another, place the thread temporarily out of work horizontally above the knit.

Knit a chain of five air loops and form a circle using a connecting post.

1st round: Work 8 single crochets with blue yarn.

2nd round: Mark the beginning of the circle with a colored thread. * Over the first column, knit two columns without a crochet with white yarn, above the second column - two columns without a crochet with blue yarn. * Repeat 4 times.

3rd circle: * over two white columns, knit three single crochets with white yarn, over two blue columns - three single crochets with blue yarn. * Repeat 4 times. Make increases by knitting two from one column in the last single crochet.

Keep an eye on the colors as you work. Increase each subsequent circle by eight single crochets until the diameter of the potholder is 16 -18 centimeters.

Tie the finished potholder with "shells" of five columns with one crochet. Between the "shells" knit one single crochet. So that the potholder can be hung, make a loop of 16 stitches and tie it with single crochets.

Good evening everyone! Do you want a seagull?)) I got in touch with coasters for cups. True, their form is a bit autumnal, but, I think, this does not prevent them from creating coziness. And here are the photos, I got 2 sets, one is more calm, and the second is more fun.

Thanks to everyone who looked))

To do this, we knit a chain of 7 c. n., then 6 s. n., starting from the second century. n. from the hook. We connect a branch with a leaf c. n. to the first s / -t. b / n strapping.

We hide the tails on the wrong side of the leaf.

Things handmade at the height of its popularity. And it's not just about clothes. A variety of interior decor items make the room cozy, truly homely. A patterned one will make any tea party even tastier! We will tell and show you how to crochet cup coasters quickly and beautifully.

For coasters you will need:

unbleached cotton yarn of any thickness;

crochet hook suitable for yarn;

tailor's pins (preferably not with a plastic eye, but with a metal eyelet at the end);

Do-it-yourself coasters for a cup: job description

We will knit coasters according to this pattern:

We start knitting with an amigurumi ring: we tie it with eight single crochets - this will be our first row.

We tighten the free end of the amigurumi ring - we get a neat ring.

2 row - ch 2 on the rise; in each loop of the previous row we knit 2 columns with one crochet.

3rd row - * single crochet, ch 3 in pico * - repeat until the end of the row; the output will be a circle with 8 picot around the perimeter.

In the photo above there are 2 crocheted cup coasters. One is already steamed with an iron (smooth and beautiful), and the second is before processing.

How to steam a knitted cup holder

Our octagonal cup holder is super easy to steam! To do this, moisten it with water (you can sprinkle it from the spout of the iron), straighten it and stretch it on the ironing board, placing it face down (this is important!), Attaching it by the corners to the board with tailor's pins. I have them with plastic balls - this is inconvenient, because. you will have to maneuver with an iron so as not to melt them and not spoil the knitted stand.

Today I prepared detailed master class and show you how to crochet new coasters. But first I want to introduce you to wonderful little cubs. They have just been born, but already have a huge purpose in this life.

Coasters for cups crochet "Bears"

They live only in the workplace and inspire new ideas.

These cubs are still very young, they only lie down most of their lives, but already can hold cups.

A cup of coffee or tea on the desktop is my obligatory attribute when the child fell asleep, and I have time to concentrate on my work, or study. Therefore, I always have coasters. And over the weekend, I replaced the old ones with these cute Mimi-bears.

If you like them, I suggest you use them and tie them yourself. No need to buy, order and wait for delivery. Just take your crochet threads and make yourself these inspirations.

Necessary materials

• threads for knitting (for one bear you need two colors - black and the main color of the bear)
• hook(I almost always crochet #2)
• sintepuh
• needle for sewing

Conventions

• air loop- vp
• single crochet- sc
• increase- etc
  increase- it's knitting two single crochet into one.
  
• reduction- ub
  Decrease- it's knitting two single crochet, as one.

For beginner needlewomen, I prepared a special publication -

How to crochet Mimi Bear cup coasters

I offer 12 steps for creating these cubs.

1. Head

Starting with knitting the very muzzle of a bear. We take the thread of the main color.

We knit the head

We knit 2 in.

• 1 circle:
• 2nd circle:
• 3 circle:
• 4th circle:
• 5 circle:(1+ub)*6 times. You get a circle of 12 sc.
• 6 circle: just knit in a circle 12 sc.
• 7 circle: pr * 12 times. You get a circle of 24 sc.
• 8 circle:
• 9 circle:(1+pr)*12 times. You get a circle of 36 sc.
• 10-11 circles: just knit in a circle 36 sc.
• 12 circle:(1+ub)*12 times. You get a circle of 24 sc.
• 13 circle: just knit in a circle 24 sc.

On this, the knitting of the muzzle was finished, but the thread does not need to be torn off. Just fasten it, then we will continue to knit the head with it.

2. Nose

We embroider the nose of the bear with black thread.

Embroider the nose

3. Eyes and continued knitting of the head

Embroider eyes with black thread using French knots.

french knots

Now you need to finish knitting the head.

We stuff the head with sintepuh (quite a bit, so that it only keeps its shape). The filler does not need to be placed in the nose.

We finish knitting the head

Further, with the help of a thread that we did not tear off before we began to embroider the nose, we knit decreases in each loop until closing. To make it more accurate, I recommend using it, I talked about them in previous master classes.

Invisible reductions

4. Ears (2 pcs.)

We knit with the main color.

We knit ears

We knit 2 in.

• 1 circle: 6 sc in the second ch from the hook.
• 2nd circle: pr * 6 times. You get a circle of 12 sc.
• 3 circle:(1+pr)*6 times. You get a circle of 18 sc.
• 4th circle: just knit in a circle 18 sbn without increments.

Ears are sewn to the head.

5. Stand base (2 pcs.)

We knit with the main color.

We knit the base for the stand

We knit 2 in.

• 1 circle: 6 sc in the second ch from the hook.
• 2nd circle: pr * 6 times. You get a circle of 12 sc.
• 3 circle:(1+pr)*6 times. You get a circle of 18 sc.
• 4th circle:
• 5 circle:(3+pr)*6 times. You get a circle of 30 sc.
• 6 circle:(4+pr)*6 times. You get a circle of 36 sc.
• 7 circle:(5+pr)*6 times. You get a circle of 42 sc.
• 8 circle:(6+pr)*6 times. You get a circle of 48 sc.
• 9 circle:(7+pr)*6 times. You get a circle of 54 sc.
• 10 circle:(8+pr)*6 times. You get a circle of 60 sc.
• 11 circle:(4+pr)*12 times. You get a circle of 72 sc.
• 12 circle: just knit in a circle 72 sbn without increments.

Now you need steam with an iron these bases so that they are even and keep their shape.

6. Tail

We knit with the main color.

We knit a tail

We knit 2 in.

• 1 circle: 6 sc in the second ch from the hook.
• 2nd circle: pr * 6 times. You get a circle of 12 sc.

We sew the tail to the right place on one of the bases of the stand.

7. We knit the base of the paws (4 pcs.)

We knit with the main color.

We knit paws

We knit 2 in.

• 1 circle: 6 sc in the second ch from the hook.
• 2nd circle: pr * 6 times. You get a circle of 12 sc.
• 3 circle:(1+pr)*6 times. You get a circle of 18 sc.
• 4th circle:(2+pr)*6 times. You get a circle of 24 sc.
• 5-7 circles: just knit in a circle 24 sbn without increments.

8. We finish making paws

We stuff each paw with a small amount of synthetic fluff.

We sew the paws so that the synthetic fluff is hidden.

9. All ready for stitching

We have all the details of the bear ready.

All parts are ready for stitching

It remains only to sew.

10. Sew on the head

We start with the head.

Sew the head to the base of the stand

Symmetrically to the already sewn tail, we sew the head to the same base for the stand.

11. Sew on the paws

We sew the paws to one base for the stand (we already sewed the tail and head to it earlier).

Sew the paws to the base of the stand

I have shown two examples in the photo of how to sew paws. Choose the one you like best. I liked it better when the paws are extended, like a brown bear cub.

12. Sew on the second base for the stand

When everything is ready, it remains only to hide all the threads and sew on the second base for the stand. They are identical in size to the first one, so everything will look neat.

Sew on the second base for the stand

And another advantage of the double base is that it keeps its shape better and the hot cup will definitely not touch the table.

That's it.

Ready coasters for cups "Bears"

Such a stand will not only become a useful element on the desktop, but will always please the eye with its funny look.
