Gorgeous Crochet Table Runner patterns are the perfect choice for decorating your dining table. Table runners are very easy to crochet, and they come in so many styles and stitches. You can make Table Runners for every day use or some special Table Runners for holidays and special occasions. You can easily make them festive special by using the appropriate color codes.
Today am sharing the tutorial for How To Crochet Drop Leaf Table Runner. The pattern is very easy to make. The leaf impression is made with Double Crochet Cluster stitches. I've used Variegated Yarn for this project. I love working with variegated yarns. The color change looks very pretty on every project. You can also use any solid color of your choice to suit your festive need. With fall just around the color, you can use Autumn Colors to give this Table Runner a Bright Fall Look.

Lets Start ...!!!!
Round 1:-
Start with a Slip Knot.
Chain 44.
This measures around 10 inches.
You can adjust the size by altering these stitches according to your requirement.
Start with any Multiple of 9 + 8 Chains extra for the turning chain.
Round 2:-
1 Double Crochet in the 5th Chain from the hook.
1 Double Crochet each in the next 4 stitches.(that's total 6 Double Crochets made)Chain 1.
Skip 2 Stitches.
1 Double Crochet each in the next 7 stitches.
Chain 1.
Skip 2.
Repeat((1DC*7),Ch1,Sk2).
At the end you will have 6 stitches left- make 1 Double Crochet each in the last 6 stitches.
Once you reach end, Chain 2 and use the Straight Edge Turning Chain method to make the turning chain.
Straight Edge Turning Chain:-
Usually you would Chain 2, turn and start working the next round. Here is a quick tip to have a nice straight edge .
- Insert the hook into the 1st chain from the bottom.
- Yarn over and pull up a loop. You should have 2 loops on the hook.
- Turn your project and insert the hook into the first stitch.
- Yarn over and pull up a loop. You will have 3 loops on the hook.
- Again, yarn over and pull through 2 loops. You will have 2 loops on the hook.
- Lastly, yarn over and pull through 2 loops.
- This will make one Double Crochet.
Round 3:-
(1 Double Crochet is already made while making the turning chain)
1 Double Crochet each in the next 3 Stitches(that's total 4 Double Crochets made).
Chain 1.
Skip 1 Stitch.
1 Double Crochet in the next Stitch.
Chain 1.
Skip the Chain space.
1 Double Crochet in the next Stitch.
Chain 1.
Skip 1 Stitch.
Repeat(1DC*3,Ch1,Sk1,1DC,Ch1,Sk the Ch Space,1DC,Ch1,Sk1).
1 Double Crochet each in the last 3 stitches.
Once you reach the end ,Chain 2 and use the Straight Edge Turning chain method mentioned in the previous round to make the turning chain.
Round 4:-
(1 Double Crochet is already made while making the turning chain)
1 Double Crochet in the next 3 Stitches.
Chain 2.
**Now we will make a Combined Double Crochet Cluster Stitch.
To Make a Combined Double Crochet Cluster Stitch:-
- Yarn over, insert the hook into the first Chain 1 Space, yarn over and pull through 2 loops on the hook.(This is same as doing a Double Crochet Stitch. It is just that , you don't finish the Double Crochet Stitch and continue doing the first part of the Double Crochet Stitch again and again).You should have 2 loops on the hook.
- Yarn over, insert the hook in the same space, yarn over and pull through 2 loops. You should have 3 loops on the hook.
- Yarn over, insert the hook in the same space, yarn over and pull through 2 loops. You should have 4 loops on the hook- First Petal of Leaf made.
- Yarn over, insert the hook into the Chain 1 Space from 1 Row Below, yarn over and pull through 2 loops on the hook. You should have 5 loops on the hook.
- Yarn over, insert the hook in the same space, yarn over and pull through 2 loops. You should have 6 loops on the hook.
- Yarn over, insert the hook in the same space, yarn over and pull through 2 loops. You should have 7 loops on the hook- Second Petal of Leaf made.
- Yarn over, insert the hook into the next Chain 1 Space , yarn over and pull through 2 loops on the hook. You should have 8 loops on the hook.
- Yarn over, insert the hook in the same space, yarn over and pull through 2 loops. You should have 9 loops on the hook.
- Yarn over, insert the hook in the same space, yarn over and pull through 2 loops. You should have 10 loops on the hook- Third Petal of Leaf made.
- Yarn over and pull through 9 loops.
- Finally Yarn Over and pull through the last remaining 2 loops- 1 Leaf Complete.**
Repeat(1DC*3,Ch2,Combined DC Cluster St,Ch2).
1 Double Crochet each in the last 4 stitches.
Once you reach the end ,Chain 2 and use the Straight Edge Turning chain method to make the turning chain.
Round 5:-
(1 Double Crochet is already made while making the turning chain)
1 Double Crochet in the next 3 Stitches(That's total 4 Double Crochets made).
1 Double Crochet each in the Chain 2 Space.
Chain 1.
Skip the Cluster Stitch.
1 Double Crochet each in the next Chain 2 Space.
Repeat(1DC*3,2DC(in the Ch2 Space),Ch1(skip the Cluster),2DC in the next Ch2 Space).
1 Double Crochet each in the last 4 stitches.
Once you reach the end ,Chain 2 and use the Straight Edge Turning chain method to make the turning chain.
