Lace Patterns A NeuU Design
 EUery Week
FIlET STITCHES

Chain Stitch--The thread drawn through the loop.
 Open Mesh--A double crochet into a chain or the material, two chain stitches and a double crochet.
 Closed Mesh-Four double crochet stitches into chain or material.
 Turn-Five chain stitches to turn. If your pattern called for 16 stitches chain 21 and double crochet into the seventh stitch from the needle.
 WHEAT STITCH DESIGN
 A combination of filet and the wheat stitch makes an insertion suitable for many things, such as pillow cases or guest towels.
 Single crochet completely across the linen on which the insertion is to be used-remembering that your stitches must be close together with at least one extra stitch at the beginning and the end to allow for any drawing in that might take place in working the center rows.
 End row-Make a complete row of open meshes and turn.
 3rd row-3 open m, double crochet times into the top of the double crochet stitch which finished the third mesh on the previous row. Chain and make open meshes and make another wheat stitch, as above described. Make open meshes and a wheat stitch, oper meshes and a wheat stitch. Continue until you have completed this row.
 4th row-Make wheat stitch on the double crochet ahead and the one fol lowing the wheat stitch on the previous row, which will allow a double crocnel stitch to be in the very center of each | figure.
 5th row-Same as 3rd row. 9th row-Same as 2nd row. 7th row-If you use this as an in sertion and wish to crochet it onto tht hem, fold your hem absolutely straight and single crochet through the last row of the lace and through the material a the same time. If this makes too thicl an edge, it might be better to singl, l crochet completely across the hem which will make an edge, then neatly sew the lace and the edge on the hen | together so that when pressed it stand: perfectly straight, allowing no fullness
