The Picot Placemat & Doily Set (Crochet)

The picot border really elevates the whole look—it’s delicate but not fussy, and the fact that you work it all in the round makes the pattern flow so smoothly. I’ve already got mine on the table for everyday use, and it feels sturdy enough to last through countless washes.

I’ve made three of these sets already—they work up fast with the most basic stitches, and that picot border gives the whole thing a delicate, finished look. The round shape drapes nicely over a table, and I’ve used them as both placemats and doilies without any fuss.

The picot border edges are so tidy it looks store-bought, and working in the round means I never had to wrestle with seams. This set has been sitting under my fruit bowl all week and it’s exactly the modern touch my table needed.
