This is a filet afghan pattern written out, not charted.

As shown, I used 4 skeins of Vanna’s Choice yarn but you can use any worsted yarn. You can adjust size by changing the multiple and/or the number of stripes worked. Remember to get more yarn if you change the size.

To begin and end with the crosses in the same spot you need an odd number of stripes.

Each cross stripe is approx. 5”.

Multiple: odd number x 13 + turning chain of 2 for dc

For 8 crosses on one stripe and 7 on another fch is 15 x 13 = 195 + 2 = 197 chains
