Filet Crochet Patterns.
Part 2. Design your own 3-D filet crochet pattern.

Filet crochet patterns are not always traditional flat meshes. Filet crocheting allows you easily to design your own 3-D filet crochet pattern. Let's consider one of the ways how to crochet this kind of pattern. For example, an open mesh consists of: double crochet, chain 2, double crochet, (dc, ch2, dc). Each cells of the mesh is a rectangular. To make a 3-D flower on the open cell, crochet a petal on the each side of the rectangular.

Filet Crochet Patterns.To crochet each petal: chain 2, 3 double crochet, chain 2 (ch2, 3dc, ch2). Chain 2 (first and last stitches of each petal) have to be crocheted INTO the very apex of the rectangular.

This way in every apex there will be two "chain 2" from the two adjacent petals each. Arrows 1,2,3,4, show direction of crocheting for each petal.

Turn your work the way you crocheted filet mesh before you started to crochet a flower and continue the mesh. Here is how a 3-D flowers look like on the filet crochet mesh

An idea to decorate filet crochet fabric with 3-D flowers provides a lot of opportunities for your creativity. Here are a few ideas only:

  • Spread flowers over big areas in a regular manner (a single flowers or in a group of a few flowers) creating a new look of the filet crocheted fabric.
  • Decorate a neck line, pockets, or coquette of a sweater or a dress.
  • Create a filet crochet doily pattern using 3-D flowers as decorative elements.
  • Decorate with flowers small forms of crocheting: bags, hats, caps, baby garments, decorative pillows for the sofas and chairs, and etc.
