SIZE: The Basic Coaster (Featured Green) measure 7.5*10 inches. The tokens will be a size appropriate to the base.
The Base is worked in rows using double crochet popcorn stitches. The technique of filet crochet is used to design it.
The base may be slightly warped and could be shaped by blocking the piece to make it a perfect rectangle as needed.
The Star Token is adapted from the TINY STAR Pattern by Hooked by Robin. The token is worked in a single round around the magic circle.
The tiny Gift pattern is a quick make and the step by step instructions to make and embellish it is included within the pattern.
Please note: The yarn and hook size, along with the crochet tension can make you projects size vary.
Gauge: 17 dc stitches 9 rows make 4*4” or 10*10 cm
Pattern for gauge:
· chain 19
· Row 1: c in 4th chain and every chain after (17 dc). TURN
· Row 2: ch3, dc in the next 16 stitches. TURN
· Repeat Row 2 instructions till piece measures 4*4 “
Stitches used: US crochet terms
Magic Circle (also called as Magic loop)
ch - chain yo – yarn over sc – single crochet
dc – double crochet ss – Slip Stitch
working loop – the loop currently being worked on the hook.
5dc – make 5 double crochets in the same stitch/space
RS – Right Side of work WS – Wrong Side of work
Special Stitches:
Popcorn stitch – make 5dc in the specified space. Remove the hook from the working loop and insert into the top loop of the first of the 5dc made. Pick the dropped working loop and pull it through. Ch1 to complete stitch.
PLEASE NOTE:
· Ch3 counts as dc. Hence 3rd chain of ch3 or ch4 mentioned is considered as top of dc stitch.
· The base and the gift tokens are worked in rows, hence TURN after every row worked.
· The edging of the base and the star tokens are worked in rounds.
· The popcorn stitches are worked on the Right side only

EDGING:
We will work the edging in round starting with ch5 at the top left-hand corner of the project and working in the anti-clockwise direction.
ROUND 1: ch3 (counts as first dc of corner), ch2, make a dc at the same stitch.
Make one dc in the post of the dc and one dc in the stitch across the sides.
For the corner stitches, make a (dc, ch2, dc) in the stitch.
Fasten off and weave in the ends.
This helps shape the project properly and widen the base at the same time.
OPTIONALLY: REPEAT the edging if you want a wider piece. For second round of edging (if you’d want one), make one dc in each stitch and a (dc, ch2, dc) in the corner ch2 spaces.
TOKENS: We will make 5 of each kind of token.
Star Tokens: This is an adaption of the Tiny Crochet Star by Hooked by Robin. Her YouTube tutorial is linked.
Start with a Magic circle. We will work all the stitches in sequence into the Magic circle.
Ch1 (doesn’t count as stitch,
Make (sc, dc, ch2, dc) Five times.
Slip Stitch into the first sc made to fasten off.
Pull the Magic circle closed. Weave in the ends and pinch the ch2 loops to shape it into a star.
Gift Tokens: This is worked in rows.
Row 1: Ch6, sc into the second ch from the hook and each of the next 4 chains. (5sc)
Row 2 – 5: ch1 (doesn’t count as stitch), sc in each stitch across. (5 sc)
Fasten off and weave in the ends.
Embellishment: Take a length of contrasting thread and sew it through as shown below:
Alternately, you could just embroider a + sign onto the tiny crochet square piece.

I tried downloading today's Christmas Tree Tic-Tac-Toe with coupon MERRY and it claims that it has already been used. But I haven't been able to download it at all. Is there another link I may use. Thank you, Carol
