  1. Fun and easy. Was my first time making a doily. I am sure there are few mistakes but the pattern is forgiving. Ready to take on my second doily!

    1. Thank you Ginny! I’m happy you enjoyed making the doily, I’m sure it looks beautiful!

  2. hi ! this pattern looks beautiful however I am getting stuck in round 7 and not understanding the instructions. could you help?

    1. Hi Shilpa,

  3. Oy vey LOL row 23 is killing me!!! Ot should be the easiest 🤪🤪

    1. Is there anyone answering messages on this pattern??

      1. Apologies, your previous comment ended up in my spam folder.

    2. Haha sorry, I somehow missed this comment! What is not clear for you?

      1. I got it, but thank you shop much….! Love it!

    3. I think you are right. Currently on rou d 23…I think I found an error where you DC in tr, ss…should read in last ch. But I figured it out. In retrospect the round is quite simple….lol

  4. Love the pattern! I think round 11 should be 12 dc not 14

    1. Nope,sorry…..did it wrong!

      1. I’m glad you managed to figure it out 🙂

        1. I’m stuck on row 11, I think it should dc in next 12 not 14… what am I missing?

        2. Nevermind! It helps to read carefully 😉

  5. I’ve only been crocheting for a year now and I really want to give this a try. BUT, when I went to the fabric shop and asked for cotton “fingering weight” or #1 weight yarn, they looked at me like I was nuts. And they said they didn’t know of anything like that. So…could you please share what kind of yarn (brand/color/etc) you used and exactly what you mean by “fingering weight and #1 weight yarn? So I can enlighten both myself and the workers at the local fabric/yarn shop. 😉 Thanks!

    1. Hi, I’m sorry to hear you got back empty-handed!
      I’m not sure why they weren’t able to help you in the store, a yarn weight is a universal term, although the #1 Fingering weight is also called 4-ply in the UK and Australia. I like to use this yarn weight table on Ravelry. And you can read all about yarn weight, on the Craft Yarn Council website.

      If you want to check online options, or see if your store has these yarns LoveCrafts has a lot of #1 cotton yarn.

  6. Good night is this pattern USA or Uk crochet stitches!
    Thanks

    1. Hello Evadne,
      This pattern is written in US crochet terminology.

  7. Hi, I’m not sure if I’m reading it wrong. But on round 23, I think it’s supposed to go like this based off of the photos:
    Ch2, 1 dc in next dc (counts as first dc2tog), ch1, [1dc in next dc, 1dc in ch1(gap)]x3, 1dc in next dc, 2dc in next ch1 (gap), ch3, 1dc in next tr, 2dc in next ch1 (gap), 1dc in next dc, [1dc in ch1(gap), 1dc in next dc]x3, ch1.
    * dc2tog in next 2 dc, ch1, [1dc in next dc, 1dc in ch1(gap)]x3, 1dc in next dc, 2dc in next ch1 (gap), ch3, 1dc in next tr, 2dc in next ch1 (gap), 1dc in next dc, [1dc in ch1(gap), 1dc in next dc]x3, ch1; repeat 14 more times. ss to top of first dc (not ch2) and fasten off. (304 dc + 16 dc2tog + 80 ch)

    I hope I don’t come off as rude. I just wanted to point out how the last round can be confusing.

    1. Hi Vinnie,

      I’m not sure if I understand correctly, but if I got it right, do you think the ch3 should be before the dc that is worked into the tr stitch?

      The ch3 is worked after you crochet a dc into the tr stitch, and then you slip stitch to the top of the last dc you worked, to create this kind of modified Picot stitch (as you can see in the photo).
      Let me know if that what was confusing for you.

      1. I’m not the OP but that cleared it up for me because the way it was written was as if you meant the dc after the tr. maybe write ss in previous dc ? Or dc in tr st?

        1. Ss in previous dc does make more sense.
          Thanks for the suggestion, Laurie!

  8. Hi I have just pulled out rows 12 and 13 because it’s not working out everything is right after row 11 but I follow the pattern but when it says to dc in next 10 I have 8 left can you help me

    1. Thank you, Julianne, I’m glad you enjoyed the pattern!
