Here in California, the weather is still summer like, and my roses are still in bloom.
I've been working on some fall/winter crochet projects, but I still enjoy making doilies and photographing romantic summer vignettes.
This doily is my own creation. It measures only 4.5 inches across, and has only seven rounds. I used some leftover crochet thread size ten, and 1.25 mm steel hook.
The doily is so small that it can be used as a bookmark, or maybe as a coaster.
Ch 9, join in ring with sl st.
Round 1: ch 1, 16 sc in ring; join with sl st to 1st
sc.

ReplyDeleteHi Olga,
ReplyDeleteHow nice to still have warm weather. Here in the east it's cold now. I love your rose and the pretty doily you have made. Thanks for sharing the pattern.

Very pretty Olga! Thanks for sharing at Home Sweet Home!
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing all these lovely patterns! I'm thinking of using this one with a regular yarn to make a little patchwork afghan...we'll see if it works.
ReplyDeleteI do think there might be a typo, in Round 1-- I think it's 16 sc instead of 26 in the round.
Thanks again!!
Katie
Hi Katie, yes, that was a typo. Thank you so much for pointing it out. I fixed it now.
DeleteI'd be glad to know if this pattern will work out for your patchwork afghan.
Happy crocheting ;)
Hello! I am new to your blog and I absolutely love it! May I ask how would you join these motifs together? Is join as you go the best way to join?
ReplyDeleteHi Olga ... I just came upon this pattern & have already completed this sweet doily in lavender using a valentine variegated for the final round for the perfect finish! Mine is done with the chunky cotton yarn with an H crochet hook. Turned out beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing your design!
