Crocheted Tablecloth

It’s Sunday, and I’m supposed to feature a doily. The problem is I ran out of doilies! I can’t believe it!

So Doily of the Week will take a break until I have made some new doilies to show. I don’t know how soon that will happen. I hardly have any time for my hobbies right now. The weather is great, and my family and I spend a lot of time outside of home - at play dates, birthday parties, story times at our local library, etc.

I love crocheting so much, but I right now I have so many other priorities. My family is the biggest one! But I intend to continue writing my blog as I have many finished projects to share.

The one that I’m showing today is a crocheted tablecloth that I made a couple of years ago. I found the pattern on the Internet, but unfortunately I can’t find that site right now.

This tablecloth was one of the biggest crocheted projects I’ve ever done. It took a lot of time, but I am very happy with the result.

      Not extremely hard, but I did get bored with it a few times, so I would just put it away for while and continue working on it after a break. I think it took me more than six months but less than a year to finish it.

    This is incredible. Where did you find the pattern for this tablecloth? My daughter is getting married, and I would love to make these for the guests' tables. I would greatly appreciate a source. Thanks a million.

      Hi, I don't remember exactly; it's been several years since I made it. I think it was from a crochet magazine, possibly a Russian one as it was a charted pattern. Sorry, I can't really help you.

    Thanks so much.

      Unfortunately, I don't have it. I made this tablecloth before I started this blog, so I didn't save the pattern.

    Thanks I have that pattern, but I just found this one on a Russian site and really like it! Don't go on this site unless you have good anti virus like Norton.
    http://www.liveinternet.ru/users/3561169/rubric/3777324/ Can't wait to start it.
    It looks like this one pretty close anyway. P.S. I NEVER get rid of any of my patterns no matter how old!
