Ok, been making these placemats for years and now cannot find my pattern. It was a very basic oval, starting with chain so many...then you dc on both sides of chain with extras at each end for turning. That was it except for a scalloped shell type border on the outside edge. If anyone can recall this pattern the info would be so greatfully appreciated.

Just omit the french knots and pick your favorite colors!
