Crochet Coasters: Where did they come from?

Coasters were not originally designed for the home. In fact, they have a very European backstory. The first coasters were created in 1880 by a German printing company. These first coasters were produced for bars and were originally called “beer mats” and manufactured out of wood pulp. After that, a brewery in the UK began producing coasters to promote a pale ale. Coasters can also be traced back to the use of saucers with tea in Europe. It seems people have been invested and worried about protecting their tabletops for a long time. Today, beverage coasters are made out of all sorts of materials and DIY coasters can be found in just about any crafting niche, including crochet coaster patterns.

Say yes to a great stash buster this may. These coasters really do look vintage. Maybe it's the colour pattern or the simple crotchet pattern that makes it look modern but I love them both. You can never go wrong with coasters and one is never enough so get rid of all that extra yarn you've been keeping.

These are absolutely adorable! I have to get my friend Jennifer to make me a few on her next day off. Very informative on the history of coasters. I'd always thought they were designed for the home... Cool to know they were actually designed for beers first c
