Materials Needed

• Yarn: DK weight cotton yarn in shades of teal, aqua, and cream.
• Crochet Hook: 4.0 mm crochet hook.
• Gauge: 16 stitches and 20 rows = 4 inches in pattern stitch.

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Foundation Chain: Begin by making a slip knot and chaining 60. This will form the base of your table runner.
2. Row 1: In the 4th chain from the hook, make a double crochet (dc). Then, *chain 1, skip the next chain, and make a dc in the following chain; repeat from * across the entire row. Once you reach the end, turn your work.
3. Row 2: Chain 3 (this counts as your first dc), then make a dc in the first chain-1 space from Row 1. Next, *chain 1, skip the next dc, and make a dc in the next chain-1 space; repeat from * across the row, ensuring to end with a dc in the top of the turning chain. Turn your work.
4. Rows 3-10: Repeat Row 2 for a total of 8 rows, alternating colors every two rows to create a beautiful gradient effect. Start with teal, then switch to aqua, and continue this pattern.
5. Row 11: Change to cream yarn. Chain 3, then make a dc in each stitch across the row. Turn your work.
6. Row 12: Chain 1, then single crochet (sc) in each stitch across the row. Turn your work.
7. Edging: With the cream yarn, single crochet evenly around all edges of the runner. Make 3 sc in each corner to ensure a neat finish. Once completed, fasten off and weave in any loose ends.

Your Mystic River Flow Table Runner is now complete! Enjoy the serene beauty it brings to your dining space, and feel proud of your handmade creation.
