Printing Hints: If you find that only the ad at the top of the page prints, when you try to print out the pattern, try clicking somewhere on a blank area of the pattern portion of the page, then click on File at the top of your Internet browser and choose Print. Having clicked on the pattern part of the page first tells your printer what part of the page you want to print. If there is a selection showing such as "Print Selected Frame Only" in the printer box that pops up, choose that option.
If working the chart in filet crochet:
Starting Chain (for a 4 double crochet mesh): Total is 45 chains - that's a chain 40, plus
chain 3 (which counts as first dc of first row), plus chain 2 (for the ch-2 of first open mesh),
which is a total starting chain of 45 chains.
To form first open mesh, dc in 9th chain from hook. Starting at
bottom right-hand side, follow chart.
