Versatile pretty little doilies!

Aida Coats, hook no. 0.75 mm.

So I had been planning to make something handmade for a friend of mine (we had met at her craft store in Greece a couple of years earlier) - knowing that our mutual friend was traveling there on vacation soon, I thought I'd save on postage by sending the gifts with them! With some Finnish candies. From idea to action it was then!

Had in mind to do a whole set of 12, but I didn´t have the time so I settled with seven. Also told her if she didn´t like them, she could just sell them or whatever.. that was the only bit she did not like lol! Anyways a lovely, versatile little pattern (origins sadly unknown).

So there it is, some examples of the doily below.. pretty much have used it everywhere lol! Thanks for your visit, have a lovely day! Oh also btw: hand-drawn chart of the pattern available upon request!

💝 The set I eventually sent to Anna 💝

 The same doily as
 a spice jar lid
