Big Sister Tip

Measure your table first, then add 60 cm to the length and 60 cm to the width. That gives you about 30 cm hanging down on every side, which looks just right. So a 90 × 240 cm table needs a 150 × 300 cm cloth. Opening the table for Shabbos guests? Measure it with the extensions in, so you’re not caught short on Friday night.
