Publisher's Synopsis
Designed in 1922 by Ida C. Farr, this filet crochet pattern has instructions for an alternative foundation row. Originally written for very small thread, if you use size 10 crochet cotton you'll have a beautiful piece of one-of-a-kind lace large enough for a curtain or valance. This is not your usual scanned vintage crochet pattern. To make this pattern great for today's crocheter I wrote complete instructions, expanded the written instructions so you won't need to skip around, and made an easy to follow chart. I also changed the written instructions to use modern US crochet terms. The only stitches you need to know to complete this lace are: chain stitch, single crochet, double crochet, and slip stitch.
