I was asked to make a shawl using the
same pattern as my friends grandmother made a wall hanging of 99
years ago.. this is what I came up with..
Our Lady Guadalupe Filet Shawl
This pattern can be used
with any yarn and corresponding hook size, if you choose to use thread
I would recommend doubling the thread to keep a wearable size.
I used a worsted weight
yarn and H / 5.00mm hook
1200 yards of Yarn Bee's
Rose Bud
This pattern is
written using American terms.
