This pattern can be effectively adapted for chair or davenport sets. In working out the size desired, make your foundation chain one-fifth longer than the finished article is to be, as this amount is taken up in your first row of work. The set could be made in the Knit-Crochet, the same as the luncheon set, or with J. & P. Coats Crochet Cord. For a finer effect use Clark’s O.N.T. Mercerized Crochet, size 10 or 20 in Ecru, Linen or other colors. The antimacassar set, Mesh Chair Set, is made in a good size and correct proportion.
