Originally designed by Olive F. Ashcroft for a chair back or the end of a dresser scarf, directions and chart for a variation with a straight top are included for making a curtain. These aristocratic peacocks will add stately elegance to your home. The pattern is worked from the center out to one side, and then from the center to the other side.

The only stitches you need to know to complete this lace are: chain stitch, single crochet, double crochet, and slip stitch.

Original pattern called for crochet cotton in size 70 or 80, creating 7-8 spaces to the inch.
