This placemat is a beautiful addition to any table setting (my hubby even likes it!). It works over a one-row repeat and is a very easy stitch to memorize. It can also be easily adapted to any size that you like, although yarn usage will be affected. The fringe and beads (both optional) make an interesting accent to the piece.

This pattern is available for free to view on my blog that is supported by ads. Or, you can choose to purchase the ad free pdf here on Ravelry. You can also add all three patterns to your Ravelry cart and receive the entire set for $7.95.

This placemat is striped; however, you won’t be cutting the yarn with each row. Instead, you’ll carry the yarn with your work.

If you like this pattern, check out the matching table runner and mug rugs in my store and on my blog.

This pattern does have a video tutorial for the stitch used and it has been tested.
