Bread Napkin by Anne Orr

Bread Napkin

This is a pattern for a rectangular cloth with an appealing hop vine pattern around the word bread and is meant to be a cover or liner for a bread basket. It is also just about the only pattern in the book that does not include notes about hook size and thread suggestions. The book does include general directions for filet crochet work as well as a table of thread and hook size to number of meshes to the inch.

Anne Orr was the needlework editor for Good Housekeeping from 1919-1940.
