This image shows a layered poinsettia crochet table mat/doily made from separate motifs that are joined together. Because the image alone doesn’t reveal every stitch count or the hidden construction, I can’t accurately extract the original designer’s complete pattern. However, you can recreate a very similar piece using the outline below.
Materials
- Cotton yarn:
- Red
- Sage Green
- Cream/Off White
- 3.5–4.0 mm crochet hook
- Yarn needle
- Scissors
Components
1. Center Flower
- Make a magic ring.
- Round 1: 12 double crochet.
- Round 2: Increase to create the flower base.
- Round 3: Form 8 petals.
- Round 4: Crochet a second layer of larger petals behind the first.
- Round 5: Add pointed outer petals for a full poinsettia effect.
2. Holly Leaves
Make 8 identical leaves.
- Chain approximately 10–12.
- Work single crochet, half double crochet, and double crochet.
- Create pointed tips with picots or chain points.
- Fasten off.
3. Red Leaf Branches
Make 8 branch motifs.
Each branch contains:
- A center stem.
- Five to seven pointed leaves worked on each side.
4. Cream Circular Base
- Begin with a magic ring.
- Crochet several rounds of double crochet.
- Increase evenly to keep the circle flat.
- Add decorative eyelet rounds.

Assembly
- Sew the poinsettia to the center.
- Arrange the green holly leaves evenly around the flower.
- Attach the red branch motifs around the outside.
- Weave in all yarn ends.
- Block the finished mat until perfectly flat.
Finished Size
Approximately 35–45 cm (14–18 inches) depending on yarn weight and hook size.
Note: A complete stitch-by-stitch pattern cannot be reproduced from a single photograph because the image does not reveal the exact stitch counts, hidden joins, or construction used by the original designer. If you have the original pattern (PDF or link), I can help explain or rewrite it in detail.
