I found this picture, can't even remember where. If anyone has ever seen it and knows where to find it again I would be very grateful.

Well, I seem to have found a smaller version for sale! That's about all I've found this morning.

Cool. I think that's just about half the size of the original. I wish I could bid on it, lol.

Is it all the same as ebay in English? Do you suppose someone would translate?

Wish I was talented enough to figure this out without a pattern!! It is awesome. How are you locating foreign patterns? I wouldn't have a clue.

Well, its a long process. But I start with Babelfish

http://babelfish.altavista.com/

I put in the words I want, like "crochet patterns" and translate it to the language of choice. Then I go to the Yahoo! home page, and at the bottom right there are international Yahoo! sites. I find the country I want, say Germany, and I paste the translated words into the search bar. Then search. And it takes a lot of searching. Sometimes I get mighty weird things when I think I'm looking for another.

If we can get the pattern, this would be a GREAT crochet-along

[marymac]

I just bought this on E-bay: Anna (Burda) Magazine - October 2000. It says in the description that it has a table runner. I hope this is the item we are looking for .
