Need Large Doily Pattern

**featherfarm** · 12-13-2014, 07:03 PM

I'm trying to find a round doily pattern using crochet thread size 10 which is about 23-27 inches in diameter. My mother-in-law used to be thrilled with anything I gave her now she's starting to make specific requests. Well, I guess when I get 87 I'll get specific too!

Haven't been on here for quite some time but I've had 3 surgeries since spring and lots of medical issues in the family. Since I'm the only one not working, I get to do a lot of running for everyone.

Hope everyone is having a lot of presents already done for Christmas and down to just getting things wrapped. Ho-ho-ho!

Hello! Dear I wish you good health. I do not crochet with #10 but #30. How many rows do you need? Round doily? I collect patterns and have a lot.

Thanks for replying. You always have such pretty doilies. I'm no pro at doilies so I don't know how many rows. Must be round or square (no ovals or rectangles) and be 23 to 27 inches in diameter. I've just been using thread for a little over a year but have fell in love with it. Have trouble seeing anything under #10 because of my eyes and fat fingers make it hard to handle. lol

Oh well. Send me your e-mail privately. I will send you some easy patterns. What about pineapples?

Forgot to ask... do you understand charts? I have charts mostly...

Charts are fine. Takes a little longer sometimes but I'm learning.

I love pineapple charts but not ones where you cut thread after you finish the pineapple points. Many thanks. Any size is OK. Do you have any size 10 pineapple vest patterns?

As for me I crochet only doilies and collect doily patterns

My mom used to crochet doilies by the millions! Not really, but it seemed like she did.

In addition to doily patterns, there are so many beautiful tablecloth patterns available online. Maybe you could find one and just crochet up to the point where it is the size you need? Just a suggestion. I tend to modify things quite often.
