As filet crochet instructions can vary, along with personal preferences, I recommend googling “how to filet crochet” to find the technique that works perfectly with your unique style. This is a pattern chart only, with a basic how-to pdf added in a second file.

This beautiful afghan pack gives you a choice of options: ten different animal squares (bear, bunny, cat, dog, duck, lamb, owl, rooster, squirrel, swan), three different border options, and five different corner posts to choose from. It’s like getting ten full patterns in one pack! Pattern is given in both standard and inverted colors for ease of reading and working as not all readers display equally.

Mesh count is 65w x 65h
