I'm looking for Greek/Roman patterns. It can be anything (clothes, accessories, etc)

That's pretty vague.

Are you looking for something like a toga, or a laurel-leaf headband? Or do you want a Zeus doll? Or crocheted feta cheese?

I remember seeing some filet crochet patterns in an ad in the back of one of my magazines that were greek- and romanesque, similar to what you would see on their urns. I think they were probably table runners, but with different yarn/hook I bet they could be easily adapted to a shawl or something.

I wouldn't swear to it, but I <i>think</i> the ad may have been for Annie's Attic. I'll dig through my magazines and see if I can find it again.

Not the one I was talking about, but here's some stuff I found:
