These pictures don't even come close to showing how bright and colorful this table runner is but this is the best I can get. The pattern (somewhat altered) is called "Gentle Winds" and the designer is Sandra's Stitches. The actual pattern is shown done on black or navy fabric but that's too hard on my old eyes. To be honest, it would look best on the dark fabric. I used quite a few different colors of yarn so it doesn't really matter what colors you choose as long as they co-ordinate well together.Now for my mistake. The center design should have consisted of loops all the way across but I decided to only run straight lines inbetween the ovals. It would have looked much better if I'd followed the pattern exactly.
I didn't have enough room to use the original border so I improvised and I do like that part.
This isn't a particularly difficult pattern but it is time consuming. I will definitely use it again but next time I'll follow the pattern religiously.
