this is not a doily!
this is not a doily!
i know i asked my friends to shoot me if i started crocheting doilies, so i just want to make you aware that this is not a doily. it's a coaster & it's the first of an eight piece place setting which i'm making for my mum who is really hard to buy gifts for. i'll be making placemats as well, although i'm not sure yet how i'll adapt the pattern to make it a large rectangle. i'll figure that out when i get there, i suppose. i'd ordinarily post this on my blog as well, but my mum checks my blog, & i don't want her to know about them until i present them to her as her christmas present this year .. unless i can work on them much quicker than i think & give them to her as a late birthday present. we'll see. as you can see by the not quite square shape, i haven't set or blocked it or starched it yet, or whatever it is that i have to do to make sure it has a more square shape. i'm pretty pleased with how well it's come out for the first time i've done such fine work.
Crochet Doily with Pineapple Motifs in
Crochet Doily with Pineapple Motifs in
This newly-crocheted thread doily has six pineapple motifs and measures about 12 inches across. It was crafted with a steel hook and 10# cotton thread in mint green. This pattern is from the 1946 Coats and Clark's crochet book Pineapple Designs. It's the bread-and-butter doily from the pineapple place settings. Center is crocheted in the round while pineapple tips are crocheted separately. Lovely for Victorian or traditional decor. Can also be used as a motif for embellishments.
