What you need to know

Helen Ardley combines knitting and crochet in this easy homewares pattern

Bright shades and bold stripes are the perfect way to spruce up the dinner table and introduce a splash of colour to mealtimes. The openwork crochet end pieces add an elegant finish. The shades used are vibrant and striking but these can easily be swapped for more subtle tones if these better suit your décor. Why not add beads to the crochet section to bring a hint of sparkle to this charming decoration?
