Sock yarn to table runner!

I wish I could say I was trucking along on all of my unfinished projects, but as usual I got sidetracked and haven't made all that much progress. Here's one that I've been working on for awhile that I did finally finish though!

I used this pattern, which is technically for coasters but I just hooked them all together and made it into a runner instead! (if you would like more instruction on how to hook them all together as you work I can tell you, I just didn't want to bog down the post if no one needed to know!)

I had become obsessed with this Red Heart sock yarn, and I HAD to have it. Socks don't work very well in crochet and I don't know how to knit really so I had to come up with another use for it. I think it turned out rather well. I still have quite a bit of the yarn left so I may also do some doily shapes that I can frame and hang around the breakfast nook...if I get it done while we still have a breakfast nook!

The green is a pretty good match (as you can kind of see) to the seat cushions that I also made for the nook.

I apologize for the semi-crappy pictures in this post, next time I'll get out the real camera rather than just my phone me=lazy, but you should have seen that coming by now!

Here's what I used:

Crochet Hook: Size E (3.50MM)

Yarn: Red Heart Heart & Sole in Green Envy. I've been working on this project so long I'm not sure how many balls I used but I'm thinking 3 or 4.
