Daisy Chain Insertion & Edging Filet Crochet Pattern Edward Ellis Ford

Simple stitches and a simple pattern, combined with negative space, make for an elegant insertion and lace edging. Designed by Edward Ellis Ford in 1921, you can use this pattern to make wonderful embellishments for garments and linens. The pattern includes instructions for the outside edging of the lace. 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, double treble crochet, and slip stitch.
