Ok, here's a good one for you guys...

I need to find a pattern for an easy (EASY) table runner. I am not too good with thread so the smallest I would be able to use is size 3. Something that I could do in a short amount of time. Everything I have come across is very involved and I know I'll quit before I'm finished.

Pretty Posies Runner (http://www.coatsandclark.com/Crafts/Crochet/Projects/HomeDec/LC1465+Pretty+Posies+Runner.htm) is one that uses an F hook, and I think you could use a Size 3 with an F hook or any size of hook really. Since it'sdone in motif's you can add more or take away more. I might have to try this one too.

Thank you so so much for this pattern! It's just lovely and I started on it this morning!

(When we moved, somehow the middle leaf in our dining room table had a little accident and isn't as flaw-free as it used to be so I thought a night table runner would cover it up! My husband will be thrilled when I'm finished. He was not too pleased about this!)

Donna I'm glad you liked it. I hope it's not too hard. I was thinking last night that it might be. I love it too. I just did a search and I remember Aunt Lydia has size 3 thread (saw a bunch at walmart I was soooo tempted to get... it hurt not to... lol...) so I did a search for that yarn and found this pattern.
How is it turning out, the amount you did? If it's not very easy youcould do almost any motif and then make a runner.

This one is a little hard to understand. Row 4 gave me some fits the first time but now I think I have it. I just started on it this morning and already had 3 motifs done and crocheted together. Not bad considering I've been somewhat busy at work today. :hook
