Granny/Runner/Doily 



Hier geht's zur Anleitung 

You can crochet this runner completely individually, in whatever way works best for you.

I crocheted this one with size 10 crochet thread and a 1.25 mm hook. Once blocked, one granny measures about 15 cm x 15 cm for me; the runner measures about 87 cm x 41 cm when blocked.

I crocheted the red doily with Schachenmayr Catania Originals and a 2.5 mm hook.  Once blocked, it measures about 23 cm x 23 cm for me.
Of course, any other yarn with a matching hook will also work. 

You should know chain stitches, slip stitches, double crochet, single crochet, and 3 double crochets crocheted together (the 3 dc crocheted together are also described in the pattern. 

The pattern is written out row by row, has plenty of pictures, and includes a crochet chart. 
It is also suitable for beginners. 

                      I hope you have lots of fun crocheting :) 

If you have any questions, I'm happy to help; just message me here or on Facebook. I will reply as quickly as possible. 

Granny Number5 = a flower. This is the granny that most people like best.

It belongs to a series of 6 grannies, all of which match in size and can therefore be combined with each other.

The grannies also look great on their own, and there are many possible uses. A cushion, sprucing up a piece of clothing, or a blanket. 

The pattern for Granny Number5 is 9 pages long and is written in detail with a crochet chart and pictures.

Here you can find the pattern for the individual granny, or maybe you’d like to take a look at the entire collection
