Fall Pumpkin Coaster Crochet Pattern - Get Festive: Pattern Overview

Where to purchase the Fall Pumpkin Coaster crochet Pattern Overview

This is a pattern overview, not a full tutorial. Divine Debris describes the project as an intermediate, graph-based coaster for crocheters comfortable reading charts and working color changes. The page has a “coming soon” availability note, while its notes describe a free graph and paid written instructions through the designer’s Ravelry shop. Start with the Original designer’s pattern and instructions for the chart and the latest details.

The project is worked in rows from the bottom upward, with a pumpkin motif and an optional textured border. If you want written row instructions rather than a graph, Divine Debris points readers to the Ravelry listing for the paid instructions. Check the original page before beginning, since its availability wording distinguishes the free graph from the written version.

Materials

Gather the supplies listed for the coaster. The source says the designer used yarn from their stash, so the listed colors need not be newly purchased. No stitch markers are listed in the materials; the complete stated supply checklist is:

• US G crochet hook, 4.00 mm
• Worsted-weight, size 4 yarn in at least four colors, less than 1 ounce or 62 yards of each color
• Scissors
• Measuring tape
• Yarn needle

Gauge

The designer gives a blocked gauge of 19 single crochet stitches by 20 rows in a 4-inch square. This is useful when checking whether your fabric is close to the stated gauge before you work the full coaster. Keep in mind that the gauge is specified after blocking, which the pattern notes suggest doing for this project.

Terms/ Stitches used

The abbreviations are Ch for chain, St for stitch, Sc for single crochet, RS for right side, and Fcs for forward crab stitch. Fcs is also known as twisted single crochet in the designer’s notes. The graph and notes are the working references for this project, so review the terminology alongside the original pattern before starting.

Notes

The design is chart-based rather than presented as a full set of written row instructions. Work upward in rows, chaining and turning at the start; the beginning chain 1 does not count as a stitch, and odd-numbered rows are the right side. Blocking is suggested. For color changes, the source describes using bobbins and sometimes carrying yarn, making this a useful chart project for practicing colorwork techniques.

The forward crab stitch gives the optional edging a twisted texture. The source explains it as a forward-working alternative to the more familiar reverse crab stitch and also calls it twisted single crochet. The designer’s notes identify the photo colors as A cream, B brown or mustard, C mustard or brown for the pumpkin lines, and D green. The blocked coaster is approximately 4.4 inches high by 4.8 inches wide.

Check the color key carefully: the graph labels A as white, B as orange, C as brown, and D as green, which does not fully match the color descriptions in the notes. The source does not resolve that difference, so follow the key and color information on the designer’s original chart rather than assuming a correction.

Fall Pumpkin Coaster Coaster Crochet Pattern Graph

The graph is the central reference for the pumpkin motif and its color placement. Finishing is optional: the source offers a forward crab stitch border, then directs crocheters to fasten off, weave in the ends, and block if desired. It reports a border total of 82 sc and four chain-1 spaces, although the stitch is abbreviated Fcs elsewhere. Treat that terminology difference as a source inconsistency, not a count to silently revise.
