Table Runners & Doilies Crochet Patterns

Lace for the table is one of the oldest crochet traditions. These patterns range from relaxing filet mesh runners to intricate pineapple doilies, each with a blocking guide so they lie perfectly flat.

Most lace is worked in mercerised cotton, from fine thread to sport weight. Each pattern explains how changing the yarn changes the size.

Table Runners & Doilies FAQ

What is the best thread for doilies?

Mercerised cotton crochet thread in size 10, or sport-weight cotton for a quicker, chunkier look.

Why is my doily ruffled?

Too many stitches in a round. Check the counts, and block firmly. Small ruffles often disappear with blocking.

How do I block lace?

Wet it, roll it in a towel, then pin it out on a mat to the finished size, pinning every point. Let it dry fully.
