I found my stash of old crochet booklets from the early years of the last century and decided to try out some filet crochet. I want to make some insertion for a Mexican top, and also a wide edging for a pillowcase. The insertion is a 'spider' lace. I really like this type of lace, and it is certainly easier to crochet a straight insertion than an edging with scallops. Every once in awhile I go through a period of white crochet work, and it is small and convenient to carry around. There is a box full of yards of laces I have crocheted over the years languishing in the sewing room, so I should go excavate it and actually use those trims.
