Honeysuckle Doily, Free Vintage Pattern






Here is another doily made from a vintage pattern. I used size ten crochet cotton thread and 1.25 mm steel hook. My doily came out 20 inches in diameter. I changed the colors after Round 12, Round 20, and Round 24.



As I was crocheting this doily, it ruffled quite a bit. But once the doily was finished and blocked, it turned out perfectly flat and beautiful!

  14. This AMAZING! I love it. :) So far I have made the small pink doily (my very first!!!) and I am about to finish the doily from Anabelia. I am having so much fun. I LOVE this site. I have skimmed your entire blog and I am so excited that I don't have ANY doilies at all, so I can build a stash. I also am going to try to make two small ones for Mother's day for my mom and my mother in law. It is a big goal for me as I have 6 children and I crochet in snippets of time here and there. I started on bookmarks and after making over 100 I am branching out into doilies. Thank you for all of the patterns that you post!!!

  16. Have just started this lovely doily and there appears to be something missing in row 4 only one asterisk so then it does not make sense, unless it is me! Would appreciate your comments please

    1. Hi Emma,
      Yes, you're right, there was a mistake in round 4. I just fixed it. Hopefully, there are no mistakes/typos anymore. But if something doesn't make sense in the following rounds, let me know.
      Happy Easter!

  17. How do I download these patterns?

  18. Hi, me again, I am on the 29th row and there appears to be another mistake right at the beginning after the 3 sc in loop just formed. I am very happy with the "almost" finished doily it is just beautiful

    1. Hi Emma, I just checked Rnd 29. No, it's exactly how it is in the original pattern.
      You are supposed to make sl stitches into sc, then into each of next 3 dc, and in next sc. Is that what you are having trouble with?

  19. Oh, now I understand, sorry for being so thick, I just could not understand that it meant sc into all of those
    Thanks so much now I can finish it.

  21. Hi Olga,
    First off I would like to say this doily pattern is Beautiful! I would love to finish it but I am stuck on the beginning of Rnd 21. On Rnd 20 I end with a sl st and then to start Rnd 21 I sl st in tr-cl, is there suppose to be a chain in between the sl sts? Thank you Please let me know Thanks again

    1. Hi Crystal,

      Here I am looking at my doily and trying to figure out what problem you have in Round 21.
      So you start that round with ch 1, sc in same loop. And when you end that round, you sl st to that 1st sc, not the tr-cluster.

      When you start Round 21, you need to sl st to the top of the next tr-cluster. (because I used pink for that round, I simply attached the thread to the tip of that tr-cluster).

      I hope this makes sense.

      Delete
    2. Thank you so much that makes sense. When I was changing color I wasn't ending the white on my last sl st of rnd 20 I was pulling the pink threw the sl st and then trying to sl st in the cl tip. So thank you again now I can finish this beautiful doily1

      Delete
  22. Also in Rnd 20 is it 5 dtr-cl or is it suppose to be 5 trb-cl? thanks

    1. At the end of Round 20 you will have 32 treble clusters (each cluster has 5 trebles finished together).

  23. I would love to know what type thread you used. This is what makes this doily so Beautiful!!!

  24. Don't know why I can't get it, but I have no idea what the end of round 3 and all of round 4 are trying to tell me to do.

    ReplyDelete

    1. Another person asked about Rounds 3 and 4 too, this was my reply to her.
      Ch 1, sc in joining. So basically as you start a new round, you make a single crochet in the same space where you joined the previous round.

      Ch 1, sc in loop just formed. You see this in Round 4. But if you look at the end of Round 3, you see "ch 2, hdc in first sc to form last lp". So here you literally make a single crochet over the hdc that you made at the end of Round 3.

    1. Hi,
      Unfortunately, I don't have it in a pdf format. You can copy and paste the pattern into a Word document, then print it from there.

  27. Hi Olga, can you further explain the start of several rows: "Ch 1, sc in joining" and "Ch 1, sc in loop just formed". It seems to me that this is working back on a stitch that's already been created. Is that correct or am I reading this wrong? Thank in advance for your help. -Sarah

    2. Thank you Olga! I posed this question on crochet help site and someone guessed it may be done that way to help prevent the "travelling seam" when working in the round. Is that correct? Again, thank you - I look forward to finishing this piece for my mom!

  30. Hi Olga, I am making this doily but I want to make it 44" in diameter, would I add more rows like row 14? Would I have to add, stitches on each row that I would add? Thank you
    Sally

  31. Hi Olga,
    How would I add more rows to this pattern so that it would be 44" in diameter?
    I think it would be staring with row 14, I just don't know how many to add or if I can with out ruining your design.
    Thank
    Sally

  33. Hi there, there still is something missing in round 4. You refer to a dtr but there is no direction where to make this.......stuck.

  34. Hi Olga, I just finished round 14 and yes it did ruffle quite a bit but I’ve checked all my previous rounds and they are all correct. My question is the count of the loops after that round, the instructions say 96 but I have 108. The instructions say to ch5, (sc,ch5) twice in the next loop and that’s what I did but as per the pattern count I have 12 too many can you help me?
