Crochet rose table centre runner, use this lovely runner to add a handmade touch to your dining table, make in a plain colour or colours to match your decor.
Crocheted using a mixture of stitches and shell design edging, this pattern is a delight to make.
I have used a light worsted weight yarn but cotton would also work well with this pattern in the same ply.
