The Practical Side of Filet
Page 1 of 1, a sample page, at reduced quality. Open the document to read it in full.
A one-page magazine article on filet lace, explaining how the hand-made net ground is made and then darned or woven with a design. It describes the point de toile (linen stitch) darning method, which passes the needle over one thread and under one, and shows a filet-net chart and a lettered initial square. It also covers uses such as centrepiece insets, tea-cloth corners, scarf ends and towel initials, and includes prices for outfits and stamped linen.
