I love color and vintage designs. Pioneer Woman Dishes are becoming a favorite too. When I started making these placemats I wanted them all to be that pretty mint green, but I couldn’t find enough of that yarn, and I am too impatient to wait for it to be shipped to me. So the many colors I used turned out to be a happy surprise creating a shabby look.

The first two placemats I made have a side extension on the right. It creates the perfect place to weave a piece of floral fabric ribbon. The extension raises the level of crochet expertixe to intermediate to advanced.

The crochet stitch that is used can be found on crochetkim.com.
It is called Diamond Shells Lace. There were a few changes made to the pattern to accommodate the stiffness of the Cotton yarn. Worsted weight acrylic can be used for the placemats too. This same stitch was used to create the Solo Cup Cozy.

The placemat below, is the easy beginner version, as it doesn’t have the side extension. You can add ribbon to mimic a side extension. This neutral color will be nice this fall, or any time of the year.

Crochet Placemats
Diamond Shells Lace Placemat (Does not include extension)

Yarn used: Peaches and Cream Cotton & Lilly’s Sugar and Cream Cotton; approx. 200 yds. I tried to coordinate with the Pioneer Woman dishes and the colors are: P&C = Mint & Rose S&C = White; Yellow; and Potpourri Prints

Optional Ribbon Embellishments: 12.5” strip of 1.5” wide Floral Fabric Ribbon, or any ribbon that fits the theme you want to present with your place mats. Example, 4th of July, Christmas, Thanksgiving, Back to School. Just a few ideas for ya.

 

After measuring and cutting the ribbon to length, fold the ends over a ¼” twice. Finger press then glue or sew them down. Weave them through the placemat edge and secure them if you choose, or leave them loose so they can be easily removed when the placemats need washed.

Measurements: 18” w x 11” h

Hook: H-8.5/5.00mm

Special Stitches
Shell=2dc, ch3, 2dc in st indicated
