Hi Juanita, I candlewick all the time. Take a piece of muslin or an old sheet. Draw or trace a pattern that you like. Buy crochet cotton in a color you like and make french knots, one next to the other covering the entire pattern. I make 18" X 18" panels and sew them into quilts. They really turn out great! Enjoy!

Annie's Attic magazine used to have some instructions for small candlewicking projects. Perhaps you can find some in the archives.

I did a google search - I entered "candlewicking instructions" and got several sites. Try it. My sister still has some candlewicked pillows that I did many years ago and they still look nice. I may try some again. It was real easy. Good Luck.
