Bottle Cap Crochet – 2 Free Vintage Patterns

Oh my, remember these?

Here are two patterns from a 1959 pattern booklet from Coats & Clark’s:

Bottle Cap Crochet

Pineapple Hot Plate Mat . . . A-227

and

Butteryfly Hot Plate Mat . . . A-228

These patterns are from back in the day when bottle caps were metal–not plastic like we have now. Some drinks today still come with metal bottle caps, I’d use those rather than the plastic.

I think the plastic would be fine covered in all that thread (and thick enough not to melt), but they’re probably too large and the pattern would need adjusting.

Download the pdf here: Bottle Cap Crochet Patterns.

It looks large online, but should print just fine on 8.5×11 paper.

If you try making one, feel free to zap me a picture and I’ll upload it with full credit to you .
