Cafe Table Runner

Create a stunning table runner that blends the natural beauty of rustic texture with the delicate sophistication of lace. This weaving kit pairs Duet Cotton/Linen—a soft yet sturdy yarn that showcases linen’s earthy character—with the airy elegance of Bronson Lace weave structure, a classic weave structure known for its graceful openwork. The result is a runner that feels both refined and relaxed—perfect for everyday dining or special occasions. Whether draped across a farmhouse table or layered over a formal setting, this project brings a handcrafted touch that’s truly timeless. Designed by Sarah Resnick Skill Level: Intermediate Weave structure: bronson lace Yarns: Duet Cotton/Linen Equipment needed:  4-shaft loom; 16” weaving width; 10-dent reed; 1 shuttle and bobbin. Finished size: one runner, 13.25” x 55” + fringe (Note that there is extra yardage in this kit. You can wind a warp of 4 yards rather than 2.5 yards that is suggested in the pattern. This will allow for a runner plus a small table mat.) Instructions: included with kit compliments of Gist Yarn.  Photos compliments of Gist Yarn by Ian Justice Photography
