Crochet Watermelon Coasters

The Crochet Watermelon Coasters are a delightful addition to any kitchen or home decor. Made with bright green and pink yarn, these sweet little coasters are shaped like watermelons and feature intricate details to mimic the texture and pattern of a real watermelon. Not only are they functional to protect your surfaces from water marks, but they also add a playful and whimsical touch to your decor.

Hook - 3.5m

Yarn - Cotton DK Weight in 5 different colours.
Yarn A - Pink
Yarn B - Black
Yarn C - White
Yarn D - Light Green
Yarn E - Bright Green

With Pink make a magic ring and work first round into ring (alternatively you can make 2 chains and then work into the 2nd chain)
Round 1 - Ch3 (count as tr st throughout), 13tr into ring, join with a ss into 3rd ch of first st (14 sts)
Round 2 - Ch3, 1tr in same st, 2tr into next st and each st until end, join with a ss into the 3rd ch of the first st (28 sts)
On the next round we will be joining the black and colour changing between sts when prompted. Do not fasten off unused yarn, carry behind the work.Round 3 - Ch1 (does not count as st throughout), 1dc in next 2 sts, *change to Black, 1dc, change to Pink, 1dc in next 3 sts, repeat from * 5 times, change to Black, 1dc, change to Pink, 1dc, join with a ss into first dc (28 sts)
Fasten off Black and continue in PinkRound 4 - Ch3, 1tr in same st, 1tr into next st, (2tr into next st, 1tr) 13 times, join with a ss into the 3rd ch of the first st (42 sts)
Fasten off Pink and join WhiteRound 5 - Ch1, 1dc in each st around, join with a ss into first dc (42 sts)
Fasten off White and join Light Green
Round 6 - Ch1, 1dc in first 2 sts, (2dc in next st, 1dc in next 2 sts) 13 times, 2dc in last st, join with a ss into first dc (56 sts)
Fasten off Light Green and join Bright Green
Round 7 - Ch1, 1dc in each st around, join with a ss into first dc (56 sts)
Fasten off and weave in all ends

Blocking is optional, I found with the cotton yarn, they can easily be manipulated into shape.
