This is a filet crochet panel with “BABY” in a lacy, Victorian looking font. Very little information included. No thread or hook specifics or gauge given. Pattern is given line by line, no charts. It is worked across 86 chain stitches for a total of 95 rows, working across the panel- one letter at a time.

At the beginning of the directions: “This is very pretty for the center of a pillow cover of sheer white lawn, to be used on a pillow of dainty color, blue or pink being generally liked. The insert may be varied in size according to the thread used.”

At the end of the directions: “Worked in pearl crochet cotton, white or a delicate color to match the carriage fittings, this makes a very lovely pillow decoration, and will be liked for other of the wee one’s belongings.”
