This table runner is as simple as it is beautiful. The stitches are beginner-friendly and easy to memorize, making it an ideal project to work on while watching TV or enjoying a quiet afternoon.
With no complicated shaping, panels, or seaming, the design works up smoothly and is perfect for those who love stress-free crochet with stunning results. In just a few hours, you’ll have a functional and stylish piece for your home.
You’ll need 2 skeins of Lion Brand Landscapes yarn in the Tropics colorway (approximately 294 yards total), which gives the runner its gorgeous self-striping effect.
A crochet hook suited to the yarn weight (commonly size I/5.5 mm) will help you achieve the perfect drape. The finished table runner measures about 15 inches wide by 27 inches long, but the pattern is easily customizable. Just add more rows or use extra skeins to create a longer piece.
Whether you place it on your kitchen table, a sideboard, or a coffee table, this crochet table runner will bring a handmade touch of vibrancy to your home décor.
It also makes a thoughtful housewarming or holiday gift, showing off your skills without requiring weeks of work. Grab your yarn and hook, carve out a cozy afternoon, and enjoy creating a project that’s as quick as it is beautiful.
