How to Crochet a Colorful Table Design

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Create the Base Circle
Start with a Magic Ring or chain 6 and join with a slip stitch to form a circle.
Chain 3 (counts as the first double crochet), then make 11 double crochets into the circle. Join with a slip stitch to complete the round.

2. Build the Foundation Rows
Row 1: Work double crochets into each stitch around. End with a slip stitch.
Row 2: Change yarn color. Join the new yarn with a slip stitch. Chain 3 and create a pattern of 1 double crochet, skip 1 stitch, 1 double crochet around. Close with a slip stitch.

3. Create the Blocks
With the next color, work a row of single crochets.
Chain 4, skip 2 stitches, and secure with a slip stitch. Repeat to form blocks.
Use double crochet to fill each block with 5 stitches in the next round.

4. Build the Pattern
Alternate colors every two rows for a striking effect.
Continue increasing stitches per block as the design grows:
Rows 3-5: 2 double crochets in each block.
Rows 6-8: 3 double crochets in each block.
Rows 9-11: 4 double crochets in each block.
Rows 12-14: 5 double crochets in each block.
5. Add Front Post Double Crochet (FPDC)

Start by chaining 3.
For each double crochet, pick the post below and make a FPDC.
Chain 1 between each FPDC and double crochet into the adjacent stitch.
Repeat the pattern around for a textured design.

6. Create the Border
Join the yarn for the edge. Work 7 double crochets in each block gap.
For a decorative finish, add picot stitches by chaining 3 and slip stitching into the base of the stitch.

Final Tips
Keep tension consistent for a neat finish.
Use a tapestry needle to weave in loose ends.
Block your work if needed to achieve a smooth, even design.
