With the end of the school year approaching, handmade gifts become front of mind for many of us makers. I love crocheting teacher gifts.

With four kids, and some who have more than one teacher, I need those crochet projects to be small and fast.
Small and fast is important when I’m making crochet gifts. But, it isn’t everything. I also want the gift to be well received.
In the past, I’ve done one skein crochet cowls. Last year I created reusable crochet market tote bags. I aim for gifts I think they’ll love and/or find useful.
Cotton crochet coasters would make a great teacher gift by those standards. Small, fast and useful.
I hope the teachers can enjoy a frosty beverage while relaxing with their family around the pool this summer.
A funny little side note about these glasses. We’ve had them forever. I’m not even sure where they came from-maybe my husband’s relatives.
A couple of nights ago we were watching Back to the Future on Netflix. {Yes I was crocheting!} It was my pick since I was going to crochet.
I wanted something to look up from my work at, when I needed, but not something that was going to distract me from it either.
Anyway, there’s a dinner scene near the beginning that caught my eye. Wouldn’t you know it, they were using the same exact glasses as these right here on my coaster. We had a good chuckle at that.

Construction
The picot edges are worked within the coaster pattern. You will work into both sides of the foundation chain. It may be a good idea to make your chain loose, so you can work into both sides easily.
Working into both sides of the foundation chain allows for creating the picot edge to start. Then you’ll be working the single crochet rows, starting each one with an edge picot.
Finally, the last row will mirror the first. You’ll crochet the picots and single crochets across this last row. When you finish this row, the border is ready made!
Size
4.5” x 4.5” square with picot edge
