Looking for patterns for lace....

Hi,
I’m looking for patterns for dresses, sweaters, or jackets made from very thin cotton that almost looks like lace. This yarn is usually only used for crocheting doilies.
When I look on Pinterest, I see the most beautiful things made with it, but unfortunately I can’t find anything similar online.
Are there any patterns like this here? Where can I find patterns like these?
What is this crochet technique called?
Have a nice evening.
Petra

Hello Petra,

The problem might be that this yarn is actually best suited for curtains or doilies.
  It’s a little uncomfortable to wear because it can be somewhat stiff at times.
I haven’t personally seen any clothing made from this thin yarn (it’s usually cotton yarn). I think the crochet technique is lace crochet. You could also look into filet crochet.

Good luck, and best regards, Michaela

Best regards, Petra
