Crochet Cat Butt Coasters are a hilarious and adorable handmade gift idea that’s perfect for cat lovers with a good sense of humor. These cheeky coasters are designed to resemble the backside of a cat—complete with tail and a contrasting little “X” in the center for comedic effect. They’re surprisingly simple to make, using basic crochet stitches like chain (ch), single crochet (sc), double crochet (dc), and slip stitch (sl st), making them a beginner-friendly and quick project.
The coaster usually starts with a round center (typically gray, black, or orange), and then additional rounds are added to grow the circle to coaster size. The tail is crocheted separately or attached directly with chains and single crochets, curving off to the side. A small pink or beige circle or stitch is added in the middle of the base to mimic the classic joke—making the whole piece both silly and sweet. Some patterns even let you customize the colors to match a real-life kitty!
These coasters make great conversation starters and are ideal for gag gifts, stocking stuffers, or quirky home décor. They’re fast to work up and perfect for using up leftover yarn scraps. With many free patterns and video tutorials available online, crochet cat butt coasters are a fun, lighthearted project that combines humor with handmade charm. Would you like me to recommend a free pattern or tutorial for them?
