On this base, the tiles are made from regularly spaced sequences of double crochet and chain stitch (each third knit) . Unlike Filet, the filling is not embroidered later, but at the same time as the mesh. During processing, therefore, a pattern must be followed from the beginning indicating which tiles will be made with a mesh and which ones will be fully decorated. The crochet filet scheme is similar to that of cross stitch.
