Flower band
A bold, recognizable flower band drawn on the filet grid at 42 by 7, equally at home in blankets, runners, and gift squares. Bring it into the editor to enlarge it, pair it with a matching motif, or tile it across a panel, then export to PDF or print the chart sized to your gauge.

Perfect for
Skill level: easy
Comfortable for an advancing beginner. The shaping asks for a little attention, but the chart stays clear and easy to recover from if you lose your place.
Yarn and hook
A small motif like the flower band suits size 10 or 20 cotton thread and a steel hook, giving the delicate, heirloom look filet is known for. A solid, light colour shows the mesh best; high-contrast yarns make the design pop in photos and in the finished fabric.
Project ideas
Reach for the flower band when you want a tidy border. It looks at home on a towel band and a blanket edging alike. Crop or enlarge it in the editor so it fits your project exactly.
Who it's for
Stitched for a home decorator, the flower band suits framing a motif beautifully. Frame it with a border to give a plain gift a finished, considered look.
Size, printing, and scaling
Worked at 4 mesh per inch the 10.5-by-1.8-inch result is a guide only — your thread and hook set the true size, so swatch before you start. Send the chart straight to print for a clean numbered grid, or resize and re-crop it in the editor first and export a PDF, PNG, or CSV.
