You can find this doily on my website: https://doilybox.com/floral/gift.php This doily measures 8 inches in diameter. I used size 10 crochet cotton and a size 12 hook. Since the doily is quite small, I think a size 10 hook might work better. I think this design would look beautiful with a gold candle in the … Continue reading “Holly doily”

I am finally done with it. It will look nice on the Thanksgiving table.

I have not made the progress that I wanted to make. I wanted to finish the doily and move on to a tutorial. Maybe something with roses. Maybe next weekend.

It’s definitely harder to make than it looks! I’m currently remaking this pattern: https://doilybox.com/floral/cow.php I’m perfectly happy with the original pattern as it is, … Continue reading “Black Eyed Susan”

Here is a little 3-inch daisy I’ve been working on. I actually designed this daisy pattern more than 15 years ago, and I loved the design enough that I had it copyrighted. I still think it is one of the best designs I’ve ever made.I can also make Black-Eyed Susans using this same pattern, which … Continue reading “Crochet Daisy just for fun”
