A crocheted table runner is a great way to add a little something extra to a dining table or coffee table. Crocheters like making table runners because they are smaller projects with an easy back and forth stitch pattern, similar to a crochet blanket.

These free table runner patterns are broken down by skill levels and also have the yarn you’ll want to use listed with them for easy browsing. Enjoy!
