How to Crochet Flowers to Make a Tablecloth by ARNE & CARLOS

[@dianearnold5381]

It took me several hours to complete my first petal, but between the pattern and Arne’s demonstration I figured it out! Thrilled! Haven’t crocheted for several decades and had forgotten everything. 🤩🤩🥳🥳 Excited to work on this beautiful project!!

[@beatepaul5814]

It would look interesting red and green as a Christmas tablecloth, because im my opinion, the petals would look like poinsettias.

[@sadiehorton8296]

The flowers would look great sewn onto denim jacket or jeans

[@jennifertaylor7021]

Yes! What a great idea!

[@laurelstieg9375]

A curtain for a smaller window..perfect.👍

[@ARNECARLOS]

Good idea.

[@roseprincess2155]

Hi Guys! I just received Cantania yarn for this tablecloth. Wow! It is the softest cotton yarn I have ever touched! I am so glad that you told your followers about it!

[@phylham1565]

I love this. It's so cheerful. Thank you for sharing this project.

[@sherinylund1659]

I really like how Arne included the Norwegian crochet terms with the English. I think you have found the solution to the English problem. Now if everyone would just practice the Norwegian terms, ....Love the pattern!

[@ARNECARLOS]

Thank you!

[@megjamieson3881]

Hello Arne & Carlos the flowers are so beautiful

[@shirleybeard2318]

Since I can’t go anywhere this summer I am making my flowers into a beach coverup and adding a single one to a big floppy sun hat for sitting and sipping something cool and refreshing with tropical fruit garnish while lounging on my terrace. It will be fabulous! Thank goodness for your inspiration. 👙👒🌺🌸🌞🍍🍉🍒🍹🍾⛱❤️🧡💛💚💙💜☮️

[@jlgallegos1]

These would make nice window panels or a pretty window valance.

[@ARNECARLOS]

Yes, that is true.

[@shannjess5223]

A curtain yes! For my kitchen 💕

[@ARNECARLOS]

Good idea.

[@christinelinn9250]

Hi guys hope your both in better health. These flower are beautiful what gorgeous colours. Arne's English is getting better too. Miss Freja is missed love to hear her barking when the moose is about. Thank you for the wonderful tutorial. Be safe and look after each other. Kram

[@ARNECARLOS]

Thank you for watching Christine.

[@carmenbailey1560]

Beautiful piece, love your colour choices and the cotton used. Thanks for sharing 👍❤️😊

[@sandragoettling3007]

You are the first person I have seen, that crochet over his finger. That is the way I was taught by my Swedish Grandmother. Yes a yarn over is a double!

[@ARNECARLOS]

Thank you Sandra!

[@cheryldeville9211]

Arne, thanks for slowing down a bit for this newbie crocheter! But even with your lightning fast fingers, you explained the technique very clearly. I love those vintage 50's colours for this pattern as well! Thanks!

[@ARNECARLOS]

Thank you so much!

[@andreaabsolom2819]

You are both looking great after every thing that has happened over the last few months. Love the table cloth, thanks for instructions. Keep safe, keep well.

[@ARNECARLOS]

You too!

[@suchitrauday600]

Thanks for this crochet work. You don't have to bother on the terms as video speaks it all. Keep going 😊

[@ARNECARLOS]

Thank you!

[@barbarapatton4587]

This would be a beautiful holiday table runner in all red poinsettias.

[@ARNECARLOS]

Perfect!

[@pamelamckenzie2685]

love the flowers love the colours Fab, Fab. Love sent to both of you, great video.

[@annkathy257]

Many thanks to you Carlos, for asking sweet Arne to slow down a bit for us! This is a great project! 😃 💕

[@ARNECARLOS]

You are welcome Ann, we appreciate all the feedback we get.

[@davidhensley76]

It would also be pretty with the petals worked in shades of blue with white everywhere else. Snowy.

[@ARNECARLOS]

Yes, that would be a beautiful colour combination.

[@vivianpowell1732]

That combination would be gorgeous.

[@LilChi1964]

Happy Birthday Arne 🥂

[@ARNECARLOS]

Thank you very much!

[@moniklds]

Miss you both!

[@jennifersanders4165]

As a lover of knitting, I have never had any desire to knit. But after seeing your blankets and now this...I have changed my mind! Everything you do is beautiful! Thank you for all the time you spend teaching us💙🧶

[@ARNECARLOS]

We are glad that you are considering joining the knitting world!

[@TinaReutin]

New subscriber still binge watching here. And I am thrilled, because I found beginner tips for the pattern Gunnhild that I bought. The camera angle of Arne crocheting was perfect. And thank you to Carlos for moderating so clearly.

[@ARNECARLOS]

Thank you Tina, that was great to hear!

[@lauraloper3740]

Wouldn’t a little set of curtains for your kitchen be cute?? Thanks for another great video!

[@ARNECARLOS]

Great suggestion Laura!

[@momgrandma5496]

A better-quality cotton yarn than I’ve worked with, would make a nice heirloom piece. How about a 70s-inspired ‘flower power’ vest. We could all use a little more caring, especially at this time. Hope this finds you happy and well Arne and Carlos.🌸

[@ARNECARLOS]

Thank you for that suggestion!

[@roseprincess2155]

Hello from the Philadelphia suburbs on the east coast of the United States! Such an easy pattern, and very pretty! Not too many stores sell the Catania cotton yarn in the US. I ordered the exact yarn from Etsy, and Love Crafts. ebay has a few colors for sale as well. Some European sellers will not ship to the US during the Pandemic. I would suggest, when crocheters find Catania yarn, feel free to select different colors from the pattern.

[@ARNECARLOS]

Thank you for sharing this.

[@gisselmi142]

Thank you Carlos.. yes he gets excited and runs too fast... But today was perfect.

[@ARNECARLOS]

Thank you!

[@ofeliagarciaderodriguez5289]

Muy hermoso trabajo,, el diseño y los colores son muy alegres. La forma en la que están unidas es muy interesante. Gracias. Thanks.

[@janikabertone5566]

Oh guy congratulating you both on 91k subscribers. Soon be 100k fingers crossed. 🙂

[@ARNECARLOS]

Thank you Janika

[@shirleyhanson6132]

Hello Carlos and Arne, the camera work today was perfect! Thank you for sharing this beautiful pattern.

[@curlew-3592]

A lovely design, very versatile too. I look forward to these videos every week and even more so now, (if that’s possible 😁) because I now know how to cast the videos onto my tv so I can see even more of you both 😁😁💜🌷💚 Thankyou, as always.

[@ARNECARLOS]

Glad you can watch them on your TV!

[@donnas9599]

The white 'filler' flowers between the 'daisies' look like a tablecloth my great grandmother made. Hanna Jonsdotter from Glimakra, Sweden emigrated to the U.S. in 1888 - I think of her (and my grandmother, who taught me) every time I crochet! Thanks for the memories!

[@ARNECARLOS]

You are welcome.

[@stitchersdelight]

I purchased a mini skein bag of cotton to crochet your market bag but now I'm thinking this would be a great use of it ! I hope you are feeling better and have had a dip in your lake now the weather is nicer, thank you for this tutorial, happy Summer !

[@ARNECARLOS]

You are welcome, enjoy your summer.

[@ChiarettaCroce]

Beautiful!!!

[@monicabeltranlangenegger5627]

Gracias por alegrar este invierno en el Sur del Mundo!! Desde Santiago de Chile en cuarentena celebrando la vida

[@IslandLady76]

I don't crochet too much, but this looks so pretty and I may try it. I think I would make it longer and not as wide and make it into a shawl.

[@ARNECARLOS]

Good idea.

[@mistyblue5312]

I would love to make a birthday bunting string(s) of these and hang them on trees or around a pool area. What fun, thanks guys! 🎊🌼🌸

[@janikabertone5566]

Arne! Carlos! I had to stop this video on my tablet, fire up my laptop and printer purchase this pattern and print it. Beyond thrilled you published this as I was in love with this pattern since I saw it on a low table in front of you both in one of your live stream videos either last year or year before. Now after this I need to purchase some yarn. The hard part is finding schachenmayer yarn on line in USA. Thank you both for this pattern!!!!

[@sherinylund1659]

Janika Bertone Amazon.com is one easy source

[@janikabertone5566]

I was on amazon. Not enough color choices. But thank you very much for the tip. Yarn.com has the majority of the colors, alas the colors I want are sold out. I will have to watch every day for when they restock. Thanks again!

[@janikabertone5566]

Sorry was not yarns.com. It was love crafts.com. I wish there was a way to order direct from schachenmayr

[@ARNECARLOS]

Hi Janika, we are so glad you are starting the pattern!

[@janetcarter6975]

Janika Bertone, you might try Dishie yarn from Knit Pics.

[@evangeline3152]

I hope you are well and enjoying your summer. I think this would make a beautiful bedspread for summer. You could even make matching pillows.

[@beverleysimmons8080]

Very pretty flower i leave that one to you i don’t have any thin wool but it is gorgeous

[@ARNECARLOS]

thank you!

[@camillefoote5678]

Beautiful flower pattern! Arne is so good at designing flowers. Nice seeing you both looking so healthy.

[@ARNECARLOS]

Thank you Camille.

[@tonyawhite7932]

I look forward to each video and pattern release-extremely motivating & uplifting during this time of life. Thank you for your sharing & your authenticity is just warming to see. Always well done!

[@ARNECARLOS]

Thank you!

[@jlgallegos1]

I also believe beading them would make a nice place mat set.

[@ARNECARLOS]

Good idea!

[@gisselmi142]

Arnel show us how do you make the white ones in the middle ... The ones that hole the flowers together

[@ARNECARLOS]

Maybe one day in the future.

[@rachelmurguia9874]

I plan on making a couple of panels for the upper widows in my sewing studio. It overlooks the vegetable garden in the summer but will add a bit of cheerfulness in the winter when we are under a blanket of snow.

[@ARNECARLOS]

Nice idea.

[@laurelgirard8475]

Absolutely beautiful! I don’t need a tablecloth right now, and I’m currently making an Afghan. I will tuck this pattern away for the next time I want a small project to carry with me. Thank you.( I also subscribed)!

[@ARNECARLOS]

You are welcome, we hope she likes it.

[@katehill9447]

I love to watch Arne crocheting. I find it very relaxing. Can’t explain why! I already have 2 of your flower patterns and will definitely be buying this one. I am currently crocheting one of your gorgeous mandalas.

[@ARNECARLOS]

Thank you for supporting us.

I hope that you both are doing well and that Carlos is fully recovered. I would love to hear an update video.

[@ARNECARLOS]

Yes, one is coming up!

[@sandrabauer9514]

Just lovely! Would it be interesting done in a finer ecru thread, like an antique style? I have a tablecloth from my great grandmother that is ecru. Over the years it has gotten more ivory color.

[@ARNECARLOS]

That could be nice.

[@PatB101]

love the flowers , they look so nice.

[@ARNECARLOS]

Thank you

[@kimwatts5750]

Hi Arne&Carlos, Great to see you again:) Love the crochet flowers❤️ I think they would look nice on a bag, or done in the colours red and white for Xmas table runner, Would also make some pretty table coasters. Thank you for sharing KimX😘🌺

[@ARNECARLOS]

Thank you!

[@memefraser3961]

Arne, your speed was fine, I was counting along with you and I’m far from being experienced. I love this pattern, so tempted to try. You two are so talented. Thank you sharing 🧶🧶🇨🇦

PS, how are you feeling? Better?

We are getting better everyday.

Awww Miss seeing you daily! I hope you are both doing well 🌹

[@gjmiller138]

Lovely... Just happen to have a bag full of Catania. This pattern has many uses. I love how the flower pot topped off the piece. I couldn't tell you what I would use it for, I'm more of a do it and the idea will come after. Just love it guys.

[@ARNECARLOS]

We are glad you like it Gail!

[@chrisdonohoo]

So glad to hear from you both again, even though this is from the "long ago world!" I wonder if you plan to publish any more patches for the Quarantine KAL? I've loved the project, winding down knitting patches thinking about the arranging & sewing them together.

[@ARNECARLOS]

Hi Chris, maybe in the future!

[@melmack2003]

Lovely project! The cotton yarn I have looks thicker....would your yarn be closer to a DK weight?

[@ARNECARLOS]

You can find all the details in our blog.

[@jennifertaylor7021]

Very beautiful guys! The perfect spring project

[@ARNECARLOS]

Thank you Jennifer!

[@joannenikkila5723]

I think it would be beautiful appliqued on too of a purse and add small pearls or seed beads!

[@ARNECARLOS]

That would be nice.

[@cindyperez9964]

I just discovered you and your KZbin channel. I’ve really enjoyed watching your videos. You both are so talented. You did a very good job explaining how to crochet the flower, especially since English is not your first language. 😊

[@ARNECARLOS]

Thank you Cindy!

Wonderful episode. Watching from “The Big Sky Country”, Montana, US.

[@vivianpowell1732]

For a wedding gift, this square tablecloth pattern would be lovely crocheting the 36 flowers in three shades in the off-white color family. 12 ivory, 12 cream, and 12 khaki. Light, medium, and dark shades. (Catania color card shows #105 natur, #130 crème, and #248 leinen, for example) The flower centers would be a contrasting shade from the petals; for instance, cream petals with a khaki center. Or if you find a fourth off-white shade, you could use that one shade for all the centers. The area around the flowers would be pure white, as shown in the video. I think the combination of pure white used with shades of off-white is very beautiful.

[@ARNECARLOS]

Such a beautiful idea.
