Here is a free crochet pattern for the Christmas crochet coaster Jane. It is quite easy and fast to make. This coaster is double sided and it is thick.
For this cute Christmas crochet project you will need two colors of yarn. Any thin yarn will work, however, mercerized cotton works especially well for this project. I use lyocell yarn, which is not fuzzy and looks very nice.
If you like this crochet coaster, you might also like my other two Christmas patterns that go very well together: Christmas crochet drawstring bag Jane and Christmas crochet basket Jane. These three patterns are also available as a Christmas crochet pattern bundle Jane. You can purchase it in the Nordic Hook shop here.

You will work in rounds. This pattern uses the two single crochet stitch. Photo instructions below show how to make this stitch. Each round starts with chaining one. This chain one does not count as a stitch. At the end of each round you should join with a slip stitch to the first single crochet of that round.
Pattern
Start by chaining 28 with the red yarn.
Round 1: To make the first round, you will work down the chain, then turn and work in the other side of the chain. Make sc in every st of the chain starting from the second chain from your hook. Turn. 1 sc in the end of the chain, make sc in every st (starting with the one you have just worked into; now that st has 3 sc in total) until you come back to the beginning of the chain. 1 sc in the end of the chain. In total you should have 56 st. Join with a sl st to the first sc.
Round 2-4: ch 1, sc in every st, join with a sl st.
Round 5: ch 1, 2 sc in the first stitch, *skip one st, 2 sc in the next stitch*, rep ** until the end of the round, join with a sl st.
Change yarn color to white.
Round 6-28: ch 1, 2 sc in the center of the second sc, *skip one st, 2 sc in the center of the next st*, rep ** until the end of the round, join with a sl st. Change yarn color.
Round 29: repeat round 6.
Continue working with the red yarn.
Round 30-33: ch 1, sc in every stitch, join with a sl st.
Fasten off. Close the coaster by sewing both sides together.
