As I am a visual learner, is there a chart of instructions available for pattern?

Where do the ripples come from? Is this a special edging?

They come as you work the pattern. You make it across rather than up and down.

How would you make this to fit on a king size bed? What changes would I have to make

Ok so now I see it is in multiples of 36 as the comments below state.

This Victorian crochet lace looks just like it came out of my Grandmothers linen closet. It is just as pretty as a picture as she would have said. With the item made in beige or off white that makes it just that much more like an antique. I love items like this and I would love to make this for a special friend.

So I know the directions really look complicated for this crochet lace but it could not be any simpler. For me, I have to take my directions in chunks. (I always rewrite or print out and highlight) Once you get the first lines here, this will go so easy and I promise you will have an impressive piece for display or to gift.

I don't understand how do we get the points?

Wow this Victorian Crochet Lace Pattern is so beautiful, I so have to make one! I like the idea of making a smaller sized one first of doing a multiple of 36 stitches for the pattern and doing the 8 row repeat. I'm thinking I may even add a edging of a single crochet around the finished blanket. This written pattern is easy to understand and follow. I'm hoping to find a nice soft baby yarn to do this one in. This would make a perfect heirloom blanket. Thank you so much for sharing this free beautiful crochet pattern.

To increase or decrease the size - add or deduct in multiples of 36 stitches from original pattern. I am using 139 stitches with a 5.00 hook for a baby blanket

the pattern is multiples of 36 for increase or decrease

How can I make this smaller for a baby blanket? What does this mean? Cont in pat until work from beg measures approx 56 ins 143.5 cm ending with an 8th row of pat. Fasten off.

This is an absolutely gorgeous pattern. I have so many patterns that I want to try that my list keeps growing and changing as to which one I will be trying first! I think this has moved up to the beginning of my list. I know this says to use worsted weight but I am wondering if you could use thread maybe one of the heavier weights?

You should be able to use thread. Obviously, the pattern will come out a bit thinner and even more delicate, though.

Can't wait to make this Victorian Crochet Lace pattern which looks so elegant. Thanks for the free pattern which is just right on the same page, clearly written and easy to understand especially by beginners.

Yes, I am also trying to figure it out to enlarge the pattern to more of a bedspread size. Any information on the multiples would be appreciated. Rated on looks, have not tried pattern, other than to try and figure out multiples

What are the multiples for the afghan so I can make it smaller? I haven't been able to figure it out.
