Detailed Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Start with Color 1 (Magic Circle & Initial Stitches)

1. Create a Magic Circle using Color 1.
2. Work 6 Single Crochets (SC) inside the Magic Circle.
3. Pull the tail to close the Magic Circle tightly.

Step 2: Begin the Spiral

1. Round 1: Work in a spiral without joining rounds.
   • Into the first stitch, work 1 SC and 1 HDC.
   • Into the next two stitches, work 2 DC in each stitch (a total of 4 DC).
   • Continue around the 6 initial stitches in this pattern:
     • SC and HDC in one stitch.
     • 2 DC in the next stitches.

Step 3: Color Change

1. After working into the first 3 stitches, switch to Color 2, inserting the hook into the 3rd stitch.
2. Secure the yarn with a slip stitch and chain 1 (this chain will not count as a stitch).

Step 4: Work the Second Color Section

1. Using Color 2, continue the pattern on Stitches 4-6:
   • Stitch 4: Work 1 HDC.
   • Stitch 5 & 6: Work 2 DC in each stitch (a total of 4 DC).
2. After completing this section, return back to Color 1.

Step 5: Expand the Spiral (Both Colors)

1. Using Color 1, create 12 DC over the next 6 stitches (working 2 DC in each stitch).
2. Switch to Color 2, and repeat the process, working 12 DC for the corresponding 6 stitches.

Step 6: Shape the Heart (Detailed Stitches)

1. Switch back to Color 1:
   • Create the heart curve by alternating:
     • 1 DC in a stitch, followed by 2 DC in the next stitch, repeating this pattern for 6 stitches.
   • Switch to Color 2 and repeat the same stitch pattern (6 stitches alternating).
2. For the next stitches in Color 2:
   • Work more intricate stitches to form the heart lobes:
     • 1 DC.
     • 1 DC + 1 EDC in the same stitch.
     • 1 TR + 1 EDC in the next stitch.
3. Switch to Color 1 again, and repeat corresponding stitches to complete the other side of the heart curve.

Step 7: Create Sharp Points of the Heart

1. To form the pointed base, use double treble (DTR) and treble crochet (TR):
   • Switch colors as needed while working taller stitches in the heart’s center bottom loops.

Step 8: Bordering the Heart

1. Use Color 1 to start slip stitching along one side of the heart (add a chain 1 after each slip stitch for a neat finish).
2. After completing one side, switch to Color 2, and work along the other side with slip stitches and chain 1.

Step 9: Final Details

1. End off both colors by making a slip stitch and chaining 1 in the final stitch.
2. Weave in all loose ends using a tapestry needle.

Your Crochet Spiral Heart Coaster is now complete! It’s a beautiful and versatile project that can be used as coasters or decorative pieces.
