"This crochet round ruffle placemat has a lot of character to add to any type of plate with its ruffle edges and the lace texture. I love how it reminds me of a farmhouse theme and it looks great on any dining room table! There is also a matching coaster that goes hand in hand with the placemat. I used 5.5 mm hook, and tan acrylic yarn. This pattern is pretty easy to make as long as you know how to double crochet 3 together, and double crochet 5 together."
