Hamburger
A bold, recognizable hamburger drawn on the filet grid at 26 by 25, equally at home in kitchen towels, café-style runners, and foodie gift squares. Bring it into the editor to enlarge it, pair it with a matching motif, or tile it across a panel, then export to PDF or print the chart sized to your gauge.

Skill level: easy
A relaxed step up from the simplest motifs. There is a touch more detail to follow, yet nothing here needs advanced technique — just steady counting.
Yarn and hook
Work the hamburger in cotton thread for a delicate result, or in DK or worsted cotton on a larger hook for a cushion- or blanket-scale version that still holds the mesh open. Stick to one well-defined colour for the motif; the contrast between filled and open squares is what carries the design.
Project ideas
Use the hamburger as a cheerful kitchen accent or a repeated row on a border. It suits a café-style runner and works just as well on a pot-holder panel. Scale the grid up for a centrepiece or tile the motif for an all-over effect.
Who it's for
Think of a host, and occasions like a kitchen refresh — the hamburger lands well for both. Pair it with letters from the alphabet set to personalise the finished piece.
Size, printing, and scaling
Worked at 4 mesh per inch the 6.5-by-6.3-inch result is a guide only — your thread and hook set the true size, so swatch before you start. Print the numbered grid to follow row by row, or open it in the editor to crop, enlarge, or tile the design before exporting a PDF or PNG.
