| By knotting. Both threads are then stitched with a darning needle after the crochet is finished. |

| How is the size of my stitch test projected onto the size specification of the crochet pattern? |
A pattern has a declared height of 16 Inches = 61 boxes.
Your mesh test with 10 boxes * 10 boxes results in a height of 2.5 Inch. ---> This results in:
61 boxes (from pattern) * 2.4 Inch = 14.6 Inches; so 1.4 Inch too short!
For this 1.4 Inch, boxes must be added in order to reach the specified height of 16 Inches! ---> 61 boxes actually give you 14.6 Inches;
1 box would be 0.24 Inch (14.6 Inches / 61); 16 Inches / 0.24 = 66.7 boxes
Conclusion: In order to reach a height of 16 Inches, you would have to crochet 67 boxes instead of the given 61 boxes! |

| What is the best way to care for filet crochet curtains? |
| It is best to wash at 60 degrees Celsius. Of course, the curtains can also be washed at a higher temperature (so they always stay white), but this also increases the risk of shrinkage. Incidentally, the latter should also be observed at the beginning of every work. (If a crochet result turns out to be too large, this can be compensated for with hot washing. |

|
| How is the crochet test / stitch test? |
| Every crochet work is started in the first row with chain stitches. The number of chain stitches is calculated as follows: 1. Number of total boxes * 3 chain stitches = .... 2. 1 box * 4 chain stitches = 4 chain stitches Result: sum of 1. + 2. (3 of them are chain stitches for the next row). |
