Poinsettia Table Runner

December 5, 2023

Let’s crochet the Poinsettia Table Runner that will surely help to bring the holiday spirit to any room. This pattern is part of my filet crochet Nature collection.

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 Poinsettia 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 POINSETTIA TABLE RUNNER

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

I use Golo crochet thread size 10 red (color A) and Lizbeth Green (color B). One Golo thread ball has 250 yards and you will need about 300 yards to crochet two flowers. Crochet hook is size 1.75 mm. My table runner measures about 22 inches long and 10.5 inches wide.

Abbreviations:
ch = chain
dc = double crochet
beg = beginning
sl st = slip stitch
hdc2tog = half double crochet 2 together
yo = yarn over
sc = single crochet

Special stitches:
ch3-picot = ch 3 and sl st in stitch below

Pattern notes:
With asymmetrical pattern like the Poinsettia you need to read the chart from right to left on each odd-numbered row (1,3,5,etc.) and from left to right on each even-numbered row (2,4,6,etc.).

  • Row 1 = dc in 8th ch from the hook (=beg open block), *ch 2, skip 2 ch, dc in next ch, repeat from* (38 open blocks).
