I've not tested this pattern as of yet, but plan to as soon as I finish my bag project. I thought that this pattern could have a wide range of usese. You could extend the borders on either side to make place mats, create multiple squares, and solid squares, and piece them together to make a table cloth. Make 2 larger ones and attach on 3 sides and insert a white pillow, then finish sewing together. The uses are endless. LOL So, first I will explain how to do this particular filet pattern. I just came across a fillet market bag pattern that gave me the idea of turning this pattern into a market bag! (See it here.)
filled mesh = 3 DC
open mesh = CH2, DC
Here is the fillet pattern. Thread and hook size, as well as gauge will all depend on the project you are planning on doing, so play around and have fun. |
