Finesse Place Mat

This beautiful free floral lace crochet place mat pattern is worked in the round in a spiral of sorts. It’s a super fun project to work up that produces gorgeous results. Despite the complex look of the finished place mat, it’s actually a very straight forward and easy crochet pattern.

This free crochet place mat pattern can also be used as a stunning center piece. I love using mine underneath a vase of fresh flowers!
