Delicacy Doily

 

Here is my latest doily made in Perle size 12. The PDF for the pattern is in my Free Pattern section or you can get the link here.





This is the original design that I did last June but I wasn't happy with the stitch count
The lilac one was my next attempt and it was much better but still not quite right.

  9. Linda, I am working on this doily pattern of yours and I am having a problem with it past round 7. After that point the doily starts to ruffle up. Is there anything I can do to adjust the pattern to avoid this? I was thinking that I could change the stitch pattern from 3-3-3-3-3 to 2-2-2-2-2. Do you think that would work?

  11. This doily is beautiful. I'm working on it right now and I'm a bit confused. Where it says close to the top of the pattern it says "Ch8 SC 3-3/3-3 DNRW" then it goes to Round 2. I followed the directions but I think I messed up. It looks nothing like yours. lol Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

  13. I am having a problem with the doily ruffling after round 7, like Monica Braxton. How can I correct it? Will it eventually lay flat? I've had that happen with some of the ones I've crocheted.

    Thanks,
    Brandi

  14. I don't know if my comment posted, so I'm going to post it again.
    How do I keep it from ruffling after row 7? This is my favorite
    doily pattern I've ever seen, and I really want it to look right.

    Thanks so much!

  15. Branding, I didn't find a problem with ruffling but I think it would help if you steam iron it as you go.
