Perfect for
Skill level: beginner
This is a friendly first filet project. The shape reads clearly even if your counting slips by a square or two, and there are no tricky fragmented areas to track.
Yarn and hook
Size 10 cotton thread on a steel hook makes a fine lollipop panel; switch to DK or worsted cotton with a 3.5–4 mm hook and it grows into a soft, blanket-weight piece. Mercerised cotton gives a subtle sheen and crisp stitch definition that suits the clean block edges of filet.
Project ideas
Reach for the lollipop when you want a foodie gift. It looks at home on a foodie gift square and a kitchen towel alike. Crop or enlarge it in the editor so it fits your project exactly.
Who it's for
Stitched for a foodie, the lollipop suits a market stall beautifully. Frame it with a border to give a plain gift a finished, considered look.
Size, printing, and scaling
Expect roughly 5.5 by 6.3 inches at 4 mesh per inch. Drop to fine thread for a smaller piece, or move to worsted to scale it right up. You can print a numbered chart as-is, or adjust the grid in the editor and export it in whichever format your project needs.
