Variegated Lace Doily

Design By: Kelsey Weber

Materials:

Crochet Thread (size 10) - Variegated

Steel Crochet Hook: size 7

Note: I used a 100% Micro Fiber thread when making this doily. The thread is very glossy, which makes it a little more difficult to use than regular cotton crochet thread, but the glossy thread gives the doily a very shiny look and the finished product feels very soft and light.

You can use any crochet thread you like for this pattern, but if you would like the same microfiber thread that I use you can purchase it on Amazon:

>> Variegated Mimosa Microfiber Thread – Green

>> Variegated Mimosa Microfiber Thread – Purple

>> Variegated Mimosa Microfiber Thread – Pink
