Finished Size

One finished flower measures approximately 12–14 cm / 4.75–5.5 in across, depending on yarn, hook size and tension.

The center should remain fairly flat while the petals have a slightly raised texture.

Part 1 – Crochet the Daisy Center

Using deep navy yarn:

Round 1: Make a MR, ch 1, work 8 sc into ring. Pull ring closed. Join with sl st. (8)

Round 2: ch 1, work 2 sc in each st around. Join. (16)

Round 3: ch 1, *1 sc in next st, 2 sc in next st*; repeat around. Join. (24)

Round 4: ch 1, *1 sc in next 2 sts, 2 sc in next st*; repeat around. Join. (32)

FO and weave in the navy tail.

Part 2 – Prepare the Petal Round

Join cream yarn into any stitch of the navy center.

Round 5: ch 1, sc in each stitch around. Join with sl st. (32)

This round creates a clean transition between the center and the petals.

Part 3 – First Daisy Petal

Each petal is worked outward and then back toward the center.

From the current stitch:

Ch 8.

Starting in the 2nd ch from hook:

1 sc, 1 hdc, 3 dc, 1 hdc, 1 sc.

Sl st into the next stitch of the center.

This creates one elongated rounded petal.

Part 4 – Continue the Petals

Sl st into the next stitch.

Repeat:

ch 8, sc in 2nd ch, hdc, dc in next 3 ch, hdc, sc, sl st into next center stitch.

Continue evenly around the flower.

Aim for approximately 16 petals.

Join at the base of the first petal.

Part 5 – Add the Raised Petal Texture

For the ribbed appearance seen in the finished coaster, work a surface slip-stitch line along the center of each petal.

Insert the hook near the base of one petal.

Pull up a loop of cream yarn.

Work loose surface slip stitches toward the tip of the petal.

FO at the tip and hide the ends on the back.

Repeat for every petal.

Part 6 – Shape the Petals

Use your fingers to gently pull each petal outward.

Round the tips slightly.

Keep the base of each petal close to the center while allowing the outer portion to spread.

The finished flower should have a full daisy shape without large spaces between the petals.

Part 7 – Optional Fuller Petals

For thicker, more dimensional petals, work around the outer edge of each petal:

1 sc along the first side, 3 sc at the tip, 1 sc along the opposite side.

Sl st at the base.

Repeat around all petals.

This creates the fuller scalloped appearance of the inspiration.

Part 8 – Reverse Color Daisy

To make the second variation:

Work Rounds 1–4 using warm cream.

Change to deep navy for the petal section.

Follow Parts 2–7 exactly as written.

This gives you a coordinating navy daisy with a cream center.

Part 9 – Make a Matching Set

For a coordinated set like the inspiration, make:

• 4 cream daisies with navy centers
• 2 navy daisies with cream centers

Or make all six identical for a more minimal table setting.

Part 10 – Optional Double-Layer Coaster

For a thicker coaster, crochet a simple flat circle in the center color.

Work the same center rounds until the circle is approximately the same diameter as the flower center and inner petal area.

Place it behind the finished flower.

Sew the two layers together around the outer edge using matching yarn.

This gives the coaster more structure and helps protect the table underneath.

Part 11 – Finishing

Weave in every yarn end securely on the back.

Check that no yarn tails are visible between the petals.

Lay the coaster flat and arrange every petal evenly around the center.

Part 12 – Blocking

Lightly dampen the finished flower.

Place it flat on a blocking mat or folded towel.

Arrange the petals into an even circle.

Pin the outer tip of each petal if necessary.

Allow the coaster to dry completely before using it.
