Colorful Crocheted Table Runner

This colorful table runner is created using simple crochet stitches that make it an accessible project for any skill level. The vibrant colors and geometric pattern are sure to be a conversation starter during any meal!

Materials:

  • Worsted weight yarn in the following colors: red (2 skeins), turquoise (1 skein), white (1 skein), and dark blue (1 skein)
  • Size H (5.0 mm) crochet hook
  • Scissors
  • Tapestry needle for weaving in ends

Gauge:

To ensure your table runner measures the correct size, check your gauge: 4 inches = 10 double crochets. To measure, make a small swatch of double crochet stitches and count the number in 4 inches. Adjust hook size as needed for matching gauge.

Abbreviations:

  • ch = chain
  • dc = double crochet
  • sl st = slip stitch
  • st(s) = stitch(es)

Instructions:

  1. Foundation Row: Start with a ch 40 using the red yarn.
  2. Row 1: In the 4th ch from hook, dc. Continue dc in each ch across (total 38 dc). Turn.
  3. Row 2: Ch 3 (counts as first dc), dc in each st across. Change to turquoise yarn at the end of the row. Turn.
  4. Row 3: Ch 3, dc in each st across. Change to white yarn at end of the row. Turn.
  5. Row 4: Repeat Row 2 with turquoise. Turn.
  6. Row 5: Repeat Row 3 with white. Turn.
  7. Row 6: Repeat Row 2 with turquoise. Turn.
  8. Row 7: Repeat Row 3 with white. Turn.
  9. Row 8: Ch 1 and sc in each st across using dark blue yarn. Turn.
  10. Row 9: Ch 1, sc in each st across using red yarn. Turn.
  11. Continue repeating Rows 2-9 until your runner reaches your desired length (approximately 30-36 inches long). You may adjust the color pattern as desired.
  12. Finish: For the last row, after completing with red, fasten off and weave in all loose ends with a tapestry needle.

Finishing Tips:

To give your table runner a polished look, consider blocking it. Lightly dampen it and lay it flat to dry, shaping the edges as you go. This will help straighten the edges and give the runner a more finished appearance.

Variations:

Feel free to experiment with different colors or lengths! You can make a matching set with smaller place mats or coasters using the same pattern, just adjusting the number of starting chains.
