Spirit of St. Louis Lace Panel Filet Crochet Pattern

Every enthusiastic crocheter will be glad to see this wonderfully good representation of "our Lindy's" flying partner, originally designed in 1927 by Mrs. F.A. Wright. It may be used as a pillowtop, panel, chair-back, or as one may desire. In finer thread, framed under glass as a tray or coaster, it will prove interesting as well as attractive. In yarn, it will make a nice light afghan.

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, double crochet.
