Snowflake Table Runner
7:55 AM Posted In Crochet Edit This 0 Comments »
Hiya!
I injured my hand a short while ago, leaving a lace project of mine sitting on the table unfinished. In the meantime, I decided to pick up a big hook again and do a project with actual yarn for the first time in quite a while. I settled on a table runner that will eventually look like this:
Nifty, isn't it? I thought it would be the perfect thing to bring to Christmas dinner in Iowa, when my fiance's family get together. It's working up very quickly, is a very simple pattern, and is really easy on my hand.
You can probably knock it out in a day of crocheting, but I'm moving a bit slower than normal. I'll post a photo when it's complete and blocked out. I'm making it with a 5.5 mm hook in white Bernat Softee yarn, which will hopefully be able to handle stains and washings provided it's done so gently.
The pattern is available for free PDF download here. I might be making a more delicate, lacy version if I get bored of making lace doilies once my hand heals up.
Enjoy the early burst of Christmas! I normally don't get started this early, but the pattern was just so cute I couldn't help it. Fall is my absolute favorite time of year, though, so you can bet the coming weeks will be full of fun autumnal inspiration. :)
