Rectangular Table Runner - Free Crochet Pattern



Hello Everyone! 🙂
Today I have an easy Rectangle Table Runner crochet pattern to share with you. The pattern uses basic crochet stitches and is worked in rows (back and forth). All you need to start is a crochet hook and some yarn or thread in the color of your choice.

If you prefer to learn by watching, I have a video tutorial below. Or, scroll down to view the written pattern!

Happy Crocheting! 😊
