You will need one roll of paper raffia for each place mat. Cut 90 pieces of paper raffia for tassels, each measuring 14 cm.

Cast on 45 stitches with knitting needle size 5.5. Knit and purl on knitting needles size 5 until you have used all the paper raffia in the roll. Cast off the stitches. Depending on your knitting tension, the place mat will measure approx. 32 x 48 cm incl. tassels.

Attach a tassel in each stitch. Double over each piece of paper raffia, push the loop through the stitch as shown in the photo.

Push the ends through the loop and tighten.

Cut a 9 cm piece of faux leather paper star strip, fold it in half. Make 4 holes at the open end of the faux leather paper with a screw punch as shown in the photo.

Sew the label onto the place mat with a cross stitch using paper raffia. Secure the ends with a knot on the back.

Trim the ends.

Place a damp tea towel on top of the place mat. Iron the place mat at a medium temperature.
