Pinwheel Doily
You guys are in need of a doily fix aren't you? I thought so! Well, that's what I'm here for!
This is the Pinwheel Doily that can be found at www.jessica-tromp.nl.
I used size 10 thread and a 1.65mm hook. After blocking, the doily was about 13.5 inches in diameter.
I think this is a great beginner doily. The pattern is easy to follow, it is made of mostly double crochet stitches, and I think the 25 rounds work up fairly fast! Go on, give it a try! (Free Pinwheel Doily pattern)
I hope you all had a great weekend, and I'll see you on Tuesday!
Beautiful doily - I like the pretty lavender color. :)

I love the movement effect of the central pin-wheel on this doily and the edging is just lovely. Beautiful work, Kate and the colour is so soft and pleasing to the eye.
ReplyDeleteNot sure I could do that pattern though with a 1.65mm hook. If ever I did anything with such a fine hook, it would have to be something really tiny! What sort of cotton do you use? It looks like slightly shiny mercerised cotton. I know that the good quality of a cotton makes for more beautiful work.
What are you going to do with all your beautiful doilies? Are you making them to sell?
It's so beautiful! That's the same color I'm working with now too! I think I will try that one... :-)
ReplyDeleteVery pretty!
ReplyDeleteIt looks fantastic! I've never tried a doily. I should give it a go one day :)
ReplyDeleteThank you!! I think you should! If you do try one, I'd love to see what you make!
DeleteHappy crocheting!

That's really beautiful. I've never tried such intricate crochet before but you've inspired me.

ReplyDeleteI am trying to find this pattern (looking everywhere!!) and the original website doesn't do anything but recycle back to the main page when I click on Doilies...Would you be kind enough to post it or mail it to me at jgc@indigomoonarts.com? THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
