About this collection
Curated by the Filet Crochet Chart Builder team · Last updated
Filet crochet only uses two moves — a filled block and an open mesh — so it is one of the friendliest ways to start charting your own work. The motifs in this collection are all bold, simple shapes that read clearly even if your counting slips by a square, which makes them ideal first and second projects.
Work from a printed numbered chart, keep a row counter beside you, and pick a smooth cotton in one clear colour so the blocks stay crisp. When one of these feels easy, move up to a busier motif in the same category.
