Forget Me Not Crochet Tablecloth Pattern

Memorial Day

Forget Me Not Crochet Tablecloth Pattern ~ I was thinking about Memorial Day coming up soon and yes it’s a 3-day weekend for many, but more than that it is a time of remembrance. And appropriately enough the Forget Me Not flower means remembrance.

It was originally known as Decoration Day and became an official holiday in 1971. It’s a solemn day of remembrance for everyone who has died serving in the American armed forces.

Traditionally, as well, it marks the beginning of the summer season.

Motif Close Up

The close up will give you a better idea of how exactly the motif is crocheted. Each motif measures 4 inches square. A small cloth is 64 inches square and a large cloth is 64 x 84 inches, both measurements exclude the border.

The tablecloth is made with J & P Coats “Knit-Cro-Sheen” crochet thread in a neutral color, such as white, ecru or cream. Knit-Cro-Sheen is a 100% Cotton Size 10 crochet thread that comes in a ball of 150 yards.

There are a couple crochet thread alternatives you can use. As usual, Aunt Lydia’s Classic 10, but also Red Heart’s Classic Crochet Thread has a little better reviews.

This particular thread is an Amazon’s Choice Add-on item. At this writing it’s $4.75 for this ball of 1,000 yards.
