How to crochet Heart Table Runner

February 14, 2022

Continuing my filet crochet pattern series I naturally chose to design this Heart Table Runner since February is the month of heart! It’s easy enough for beginners to create a beautiful piece for home decoration.

WHAT IS FILET CROCHET?

Filet means ‘net’ or ‘mesh’ in French. Using just chains and double crochet stitches and following the image chart it’s easy to do. You will find the full Heart chart below in the written pattern section.

Filet crochet consists of two types of blocks or squares making up the grid: open blocks are made with two chains and one double crochet, and solid blocks are made with three double crochet stitches. The first block on each row starts with additional double crochet but from there it’s either ch2+dc (open) or dc3 (solid).

BLOCKING TABLE RUNNER

The table runner definitely needs blocking after you finish it. I usually make the piece wet, stretch it out on blocking mats and attach it with pins. I also spray some starch to give it extra firm shape. Let it dry completely before removing the pins.

WRITTEN PATTERN OF HEART TABLE RUNNER

If you prefer ad-free printable PDF pattern, you can get it on:

  • Ravelry
  • Etsy
  • LoveCrafts

I use Golo thread size 10 (light pink = color A) and Aunt Lydia’s thread size 10 (white = color B). Golo thread ball has 250 yards and one of each color is enough for the table runner. Crochet hook is size 1.75 mm. My table runner measures about 21 inches long and 8.5 inches wide.

My Amazon picks:


Abbreviations:
ch = chain
dc = double crochet
beg = beginning
sl st = slip stitch
sc = single crochet

Pattern notes:
With symmetrical pattern like the Heart you can read the chart either from left to right or right to left, the count of blocks will be the same.
  • With color A ch 86.
  • Row 1 = dc in 8th ch from the hook (=beg open block), *ch 2, skip 2 ch, dc in next ch, repeat from* (27 open blocks).
  • Row 2 = ch 5 and turn, dc in next dc (=beg open block), *ch 2 and dc in next dc, repeat from* and make total of 10 open blocks including beg open block, (dc 2 in next ch2-space, dc in next dc) twice for 2 solid blocks, (ch 2 and dc in next dc) three times for 3 open blocks, (dc 2 in next ch2-space, dc in next dc) twice for 2 solid blocks, *ch 2 and dc in next dc, repeat from* and make 10 open blocks, finish the row with last dc in 3rd ch of beg 8-ch.
