IN THE VINEYARD, PATTERN NO. 144CE
This beautiful table lace pattern is made in Romanian Point Lace, a very old and exquisite European lace technique. In this listing it is sold as a Pattern only and I offer a full 28 pages of step-by-step, easy-to-follow illustrated instructions, paper pattern, fabric muslin for you to transfer the paper pattern onto it and the picture of the finished pattern. It is worked with DMC Cebelia Cotton thread, Ecru size 10 for braids(about 4 balls), size 20 for bullion stitch grapes, leaves, bridges and some of the crochet braids(about 5 balls), size 30 for needle lace stitches, 70m(purchase 1 ball). Other crochet cotton threads can be used but need to be of good quality, like Anchor or Anchor Freccia, Lizbeth threads. You will need to purchase all necessary threads, 2 sharp pointed needles, size 5 and 7 and 2 tapestry needles, size 22 and 24, sewing thread for basting the braids onto the fabric pattern and a iron-on transfer pen for transferring the pattern from the paper to the muslin. Sulky pens are a good brand. The method of transferring is explained in the instructions. Note: In order to make it easy to work the pattern, I have included in the pattern small paper patterns of the daisies and the flowers so that they can be worked separately on small fabric patterns and only then they can be basted on the large fabric pattern. Also, the crocheted leaves are basted after they are joined 5 of them together; so are the cluster of grapes basted on the large fabric pattern after they are worked separately. The instructions in the package explain each step in which the pattern need to be worked and assembled. A steel crochet hook(hk) 1.15-1.25mm (10-9 steel U.S.A.) is also required for crocheting the braids, the grapes and the rings. The finished size of the pattern is 35" x 23"(89cm x 59cm).
