Making Waves Placemat
"The Making Waves Placemat pattern is an easy project that offers lots of texture and is worked over a one-row repeat. Therefore, a beginner could try this out, too. The yarn used is the Comfy Cotton Blend from Lion Brand. This is a DK / #3 light weight yarn. It offers lots of drape, is soft to use and offers lots of yardage in one skein. This pattern has been tested and there is a video tutorial to help you along."
