Intro: Filet Crochet Name Doily In Filet Crochet chains and double crochets are used to create a grid, and double crochets are used to fill the grid spaces to create the pattern. I was first introduced to it by my mother who created a name doily for me for Christmas. My children each wanted one, but my mom had made so many that she said she wouldn’t do any more. So I learned how to make the name doilies using Filet Crochet. So far I have made over 50 of these doilies and given them as gifts. The one I made in this Instructable was for the bridal shower of my nephew’s fiancé. (They are now married) Everyone who sees one expresses disbelief that I had made it. They don’t know me very well, do they? So I know that I can make one of these and get a positive response. (FYI- it will take +/- 1 hour to make a letter, and an hour to make each end, so 7 hours for this doily.) Here we go on how to make a Filet Crochet Name Doily. Step 1: Supplies: Graph paper Pencil #10 crochet thread (white or ecru work best but you can use any color) Size #7 crochet hook Scissor Alphabet pattern (there are loads of alphabet patterns free on the internet) Terms: Ch(s) – Chain(s) dc - Double Crochet (US term, outside the US it is called tc, triple crochet) http://www.instructables.com/id/Filet-Crochet-Name-Doily/ Step 2: First you need to create a graph of the name you are going to spell on the doily. I get out my favorite font graph and have the correct spelling of the name beside me (this was really important for the 15 letter name that ended with “witz”). I then use pencil to transfer the name to the graph paper each letter of the name with one row of space between each letter. It’s doesn’t have to be all on the same line. You will be reading the pattern from top to bottom on the first row and from bottom to top on the second row, alternating which end you start at for the width of each letter. Step 3: First you start by creating a chain 66 stitches long. Step 4: Row 1: Dc in 4th chain from the hook, dc in the next 3 chains (this is the start of the solid edge along the top. *Chain 2 and dc in the 3 chain (or in other works, skip 2 chains), repeat from* until you have 19 open grid spaces, dc in the last 4 stitches, (the solid edge along the bottom) chain 3 and turn. http://www.instructables.com/id/Filet-Crochet-Name-Doily/ Step 5: Row 2: dc in tops of next 3 of dc, (Crochet through both the top and bottom loops) *Chain 2 and dc in the top of the next dc, go from * until you have 19 open grid spaces, dc in the last 4 stitches, chain 3 and turn. Step 6: Row 3: Now we start the letters. You are coming from the top so, dc in tops of next 3 of dc, create open grids for 5 spaces ending with a dc, read the first line on the left side of the first letter. If that first square has an X in it, dc into the 2 chs and 2 dc in the next dc, if the next square has an X fill it with 2 dc, if it doesn’t crochet 2 ch over the empty space. (all the letters are 9 squares deep so you will either fill each square with 2 dc or just ch2, for those 9 squares. Then make 5 empty square, dc the last 4 stitches, ch3 and turn. Rows 4 etc: read the pattern for the next row from the bottom up, filling any square with an X with 2 dc, and any empty squares with ch2. Each square consists of 3 stitches. The first dc stich for that square and then 2 more stitches, to either fill or leave open the square. The first dc of the next square also serves as the last dc of the previous square. Because of the size of each letter, not every letter takes the same number of rows to create, compare I and W. When you have completed the first letter, the next two rows will be repeats of row #2. http://www.instructables.com/id/Filet-Crochet-Name-Doily/ Step 7: Look carefully at the first letter and determine whether you are starting at the top or the bottom of the next letter. On some of the letters it doesn’t matter, because they are symmetrical top to bottom (I, O, E, B etc.), on others it would make a big difference because they are not symmetrical, (G, Z, K, etc.) You would hate to get most of the way through a name only to discover that one or more letters is upside down. (Been there done that.) There is nothing to do but rip it out and start again the last 2 empty rows after the last correct letter. Step 8: When you are done with the last two empty rows after the last letter, then you start with the end edging, reading it the same way you read the letters. One problem, the patterns for the ends, are copy righted in a book I bought. You can get a copy of the book here: http://www.amazon.com/Your-Name-Filet-Crochet- Leisure/dp/B000LQHML8/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1352657667&sr=1-1. Once one end is done, tie off and weave in the thread end. http://www.instructables.com/id/Filet-Crochet-Name-Doily/ Step 9: Turn the doily over and repeat the end pattern for the other end. Again weave in loose ends. Step 10: I usually just hand wash the doily and block it (lay it on a soft surface and use straight pins to pull the edges out so that it will lay flat) and let it dry. http://www.instructables.com/id/Filet-Crochet-Name-Doily/ Step 11: Now it is ready to be matted (that’s another Instructable). Step 12: If it is to be a table doily, soak it in liquid starch and then block it allowing it to dry. Beautiful! Enjoy! Related Instructables Gifts, Gifts, Gifts!

  • Spanish Moss Shawl
    SPANISH MOSS SHAWL Designed and woven by John Mullarkey Overview: Inspired by a gift skein of sock yarn from a friend, and enhanced by not being able to find the same dye lot, this shawl was woven with a Zoom Loom and joined with crochet. The color and drape reminded me of the Spanish moss I saw hanging in trees when I lived in East Texas. Difficulty rating: Easy weaving with crochet join Size: 70” width; short edges 50” Yarn: Dream in Color Smooshy (450yds/4 oz.), Cloud Jungle, 1 skein (MC). Dream in Color Smooshy, either a different dye lot of Cloud Jungle, or a different but analogous colorway (CC). Crochet thread, #10 (350 yards), black or coordinating color. Other notions, equipment or tools: size 6 crochet hook; tapestry or yarn needle; scissors. Weaving and Assembly: ■ Weave 56 squares using the Zoom Loom in color MC. Work in all ends as you weave. ■ Weave 22 squares in color CC. Work in all ends as you weave. Total of 78 squares woven. ■ Using the layout chart below, join the squares by crochet- ing a single crochet (sc) in each loop pair. ■ Chain (ch) 3, sc in loop pair of adjoining square using cro- chet thread. ■ Repeat above for all rows and columns of squares. ■ After all squares have been joined, crochet a border of sc in loop pair, ch 3 around. You may want to do ch 2 where cor- ners meet to tighten up the joined edges. Finishing: Hand wash in lukewarm water. Roll in a towel to remove excess water.

  • Chastity in a West Papuan City: Durkheim's 'Ideal' and Sexual Virtue
    Pre-marital chastity in a West Papuan city: Durkheim’s ‘ideal’ and sexual virtue. Sarah Louise Richards Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy March 2016 School of Social and Political Sciences The University of Melbourne Produced on archival quality paper This thesis is dedicated to Darius, Benson and Paskalina b Abstract This thesis engages critically with Durkheim¹s ideas of morality in an ethnographic exploration of the reasons young women in Manokwari (West Papua, Indonesia) choose to maintain chastity prior to marriage. Based on 27 months of fieldwork with an urban, Christian, coastal community, I examine their sexual conformity through the motivating force of three emotions – love, fear and hope. Young women wanted to delay their sexual debut so as to not hurt or disappoint their beloved mothers and because they feared being beaten by kin and suffering other forms of violence that sanctioned sexual transgressions. Since pregnancy is understood to lead to school drop-out and forced marriage, hope for a future characterised by secure employment and a harmonious marriage is also a rationale for chastity. These affective logics are explored in the context of cultural constructions of sexual morality at a time of rapid socio-economic change, immoral threats and revitalised enthusiasms for being Christian, and being Papuan. My finding that sentiment structures processes of young women’s moral reasoning and chaste practice supports Durkheim’s contention that ideals – moral standards that are above and beyond individuals – are emotionally based constructs of sacred power. This ethnography thus contributes to recent anthropological discussions that conceptualise morality and ethics as a realm where actors evaluate, select and enact a range of moral options in order to fashion themselves as ethical subjects.

  • Yarn Selection Is a Skill That Should Be Demonstrated in All Three Levels. It Is
    Yarn selection is a skill that should be demonstrated in all three levels. It is upon the participant to correctly choose project and swatch yarns to meet the requirements of the program. CAREFULLY READ THE DIRECTIONS PACKET as to descriptions of the yarns acceptable for the swatch or project you are working on. Here is a link to an On Your Way to the Master’s Article(Arenda Holladay) with advice for choosing yarn for the Masters. You will need to be logged in to see the article. Keep in mind this article was written in 2005, so some of the requirements may be different for the 2016 directions — again refer to your directions. The program requires currently produced, commercial yarns. This means avoid discontinued yarns and any home-spun and hand-dyed yarns. Single color swatches should be in white, off-white, or pastels. Contrast colors should be light or bright. When choosing colors for projects, keep in mind that the reviewers must be able to see every stitch. If that is not possible due to your yarn choice, you will be asked to resubmit that item. This article from Knitty Fall, 2005 discusses how ply affects the finished fabric and more importantly stitch definition. We recommend using yarns that are conventionally plied as shown in the first example. Using other types of yarns often has a negative effect on cable, yarn over, and special stitch patterns and can (and has) led to some of these swatches requiring resubmission. We also recommend 100% wool (not superwash) as this yarn blocks well and will show off your work the best.

  • Updated June 2009 CROCHETED OR KNITTED LEPROSY BANDAGES
    Instructions for Making Leprosy Bandages - Updated June 2009 CROCHETED OR KNITTED LEPROSY BANDAGES Patterns/Instructions: Finished Size: approximately 3 1/2 to 4 inches wide by 4 feet long. If it shrinks up to be a bit smaller when washed...don't worry that is fine.They are used to wrap everything from tiny fingers to the stumps of lost legs and feet. No two applications are the same so our bandages can vary a bit as well. Material specifications: 100% mercerized crochet cotton – size #10 - white, cream or ecru (no irritating dyes). This is commonly called “bedspread cot- ton” (1 'ball/skein' will usually make two bandages.) Suggested brands include: South Maid D54, DMC Traditions, Aunt Lydia’s Classic Crochet Thread, Cro Sheen and JP Coats. You can find these online as well as at your local Wal-Mart, fabric or craft store. Tightness: The ones shown in pictures on the blog are good examples of how the bandages should look. It should be a 'medium-tight', not strangling, but fairly close, with breathable holes. If yours look Mesh-like they are too loose - please switch to a smaller crochet hook (size D) or knitting needle (size 2). These are tighter and made with smaller thread/yarn (no worsted weight) than the ones Global Health used to send to India as the climate and needs are different in Vietnam. Knitted Leprosy Bandage: Use size 2 (2.75 mm = UK 12) knitting needles if you knit average or loosely, size 3 (3.25 mm = UK 10) needles if you knit tightly.
