Free Vintage Crochet Pattern Bird Chair Set

Chair Back and Armrest

Bird Filet Crochet Pattern ~ I’ve seen a couple of bird chair set patterns available on the internet but this one I really like. It has the birds facing each other with decorative crochet around them.

Bird Chair Set Filet Crochet Pattern

The chair back has a set of four birds and the armchair has two of the same bird profile. I can see this filet crochet pattern used for a pretty window valance as-well-as a chair set.

The Chair Back measures 9½ inches x 15 inches and the armrest is 7 inches x 9½ inches.
