Crochet placemat inspired by the nordic style colour scheme.

Use any Aran size cotton or linen yarn in three colours. The suggested yarns are Drops Bomull-Lin in three colours: 02, 11 and 15 (it comes in 50gr skeins). You will need 2 skeins of each colour. The amount of yarn used: 105m (61 gr) of colours 11 and 15 and 91m (53gr) of colour 02 used to obtain a finished size of 45x30cm.

The recommended gauge is 8sts x 10 rows in a 4x4cm (1” square). The tension is also tighter than for usual garment crochet. This will give the placemat a more compact finish.

The written pattern includes the link to the video tutorial, showing you improved techniques on how to achieve a perfect finish!
