Book Description
Excerpt from The New Filet Crochet Book: Original Designs Which May Be Used Also for Cross-Stitch and Beadwork, With Patterns Represented in a New Way In mediaeval times Darned Netting, also called Lacis, was contemporary with the linen embroidery of that age. Cluny Guipure, one of the earliest forms, was known as Opus filatorium, or, in the Middle Ages as Spider Work. It shows a netted square-meshed background, identical with that of our modern Filet. The network is darned upon with counted stitches like tapestry, and by modern French workers is now called Point Conte or Filet Brode a Reprises: while in Italy the modern variety is called Guipure d'Art. The patterns woven into the netting are more or less elaborate but the same beautiful designs may be carried out in Filet Crochet, now so popular. The crochet, moreover, enables one to complete the design in one operation, the solid meshes as well as the open meshes being worked as you go along Filet Crochet is not new. Most of us have pieces handed down to us from our grandmothers. But since artists have thought it worth while to create new designs for this lace, the art has been wonderfully improved. The designs in this book arc not only artistic and beautiful but are strictly original and have never before been published. The method of representing them is also very unusual - the black spaces showing the open meshes and the white squares outlined in black, showing the solid meshes - thus making it very easy to count the squares and much less trying to the eyes than the old way. Another decided advantage to the worker is the table (see page 22) giving the size of a piece when worked with number 30, 50, 100 or 150 thread. This will enable the worker to select just the pattern needed to carry out the idea she has in mind. Those who have made a study of Coats of Arms and Heraldry will be delighted with the artistic perception and accuracy of such figures as No. 50, 56 and 78. Materials. Any good cotton thread may be used for Filet Crochet and silk thread also, the purse twist being the best for this use. The silky mercerized cottons and the beautiful linen threads are also very good. D. M. C. thread was used in all of the samples and finished pieces in this book. The only other things necessary are a good pattern, and a crochet hook. Use as fine a hook as can be used without splitting the thread. The material, if any is to be used together with the crocheted work, should also be considered and a thread chosen which will harmonize with the same.
