Our wiggly crochet Easter Bunny hot pad and Easter Basket coaster will have you grinning from ear to ear (bunny ears, that is!). The hot pad is perfect for your Easter meal hot dish while the coaster keeps surfaces unharmed from water rings. And they make great gifts, too!

This design was previously published in the booklet “Hot Stuff for the Holidays” by Jeanette Crews Designs in 2003. Since that company no longer exists, I decided to bring this pattern back for your stitching and decorating pleasure!

The pattern includes 2 wiggly crochet charts: one for the hot pad and one for the coaster, as well as written instructions and a brief tutorial on doing wiggly crochet.

This pattern is also available as part of the set of 6 Wiggly Hot Pads & Coasters ebook for $11.95.

The hot pad measures 6 1/4” wide x 6 5/8” high. The coaster measures 3 3/4” wide x 4” high. This set uses White, Periwinkle, Candy Pink and Orchid Pink, but you can use any size 10 cotton crochet thread you desire.

These designs are done in wiggly crochet with a foundation mesh made first, then the design is worked on top of the foundation mesh. Give wiggly crochet a try. You’ll be glad you did!
