Fancy Puff Trivets - Free Pattern

Fancy Puff Trivets - Free Pattern

These Fancy Puff Trivets are a bit of a spin on an old classic of mine - the Fancy Puff Coasters! This time, with a bit of a new shape and look.

In keeping with the Fancy Puff Coasters, we have the same beautiful puff stitch texture and combine it with the Sl St through the back loop border. This time, we have a bit of a different shape though.

While the coasters were round, this updated Trivet pattern features a hexagonal shape. Not only is it unique, but it's perfect for a matching set with the coasters that doesn't match too much.

Materials

You will need the following:

  • Knit Pick's Dishie Yarn (1 ball)
    • ~75-85 yds of yarn total
  • US H/8 - 5.00 mm Hook
  • Tapestry Needle for weaving in ends
  • Scissors
  • 5 removable stitch markers (optional)

Note on Yarn: While the materials state 1 ball of yarn, you will not need a full ball of yarn. Each coaster comes out to just under 75-85 yds of yarn total.

While not required, I chose to use Knit Pick's Dishie for its wide range of colors, softness, and durability. This would look lovely in other cotton yarns as well, though!

Pattern Notes

  • Each trivet comes out to about 8" by 7.2" with about a .25" thickness to each trivet.
  • Due to the nature of these trivets, I would suggest these as use for protecting countertops and tables, but I would not recommend these for removing hot items from the oven. Think of the fingers!
  • I did not focus too much on gauge for this pattern, but if you are looking at following my gauge, work 4 rounds and take a measurement - this fourth row should be around 4" across

Special Techniques

You will need to know the following techniques for this pattern:

You can camouflage the Ch 3 at the beginning of the round a bit by working the first Puff Stitch of each round behind the Ch 3 bar. It may look funny at first, but it should even out as you continue through the rounds.

The Ch 3 can be hidden by doing your first puff stitch just before the ch 3 of the round before.

If interested, add on a quick loop by cutting a 12" piece of Faux Leather or cotton cord. Tie a quick knot and slip it through one of the corners of your project.

After weaving in the ends, make a few more or make some Fancy Puff Coasters to finish off your set!
