One of the best things about being a crocheter is the opportunity to decorate for the holidays. Natasja King has designed an absolutely gorgeous lace doily that will bring holiday cheer to any table.
The Festive Lace Doily pattern is crocheted from a silk bamboo blend in 15 rounds, with eight different stitch patterns that showcase the colors of Christmas. Double-crochet clusters separate the stitch patterns, making each of them really stand out. You’ll crochet mesh patterns, shell clusters, and a beautiful pointed picot edging.
Doilies are wonderfully classic décor elements, and perfect for classic holiday decor. Make several doilies and bring back memories of Christmases past, celebrated at Grandma’s house, perhaps, where doilies were sprinkled around the house like snow.
Speaking of snow, the Festive Lace Doily would be just as gorgeous knit in white or ice blue, to bring to mind the crisp, cold winter weather. But don’t limit yourself to showing off this doily only during the holidays! Crochet up a set for use during tea time or to decorate your side tables all year round.
The Festive Lace Doily pattern includes:
- List of necessary materials
- Special stitch instructions
- Complete project instructions
- Detailed photography
The Festive Lace Doily is designed as a coaster, but it can be displayed on the back of a chair or used as a trivet for your tea pot. Set it out anywhere in your home to add a bit of holiday pizazz.
This project is intricate enough to keep you interested, but definitely not too complicated to crochet up a bunch—spread the merriment to your friends when you give them a stunning lace doily!
