Pretty Crochet Doily Pattern
Create a lovely lace doily with this intermediate crochet pattern to add a fancy touch to your dining room table. The Pretty Crochet Doily Pattern from Bernat Yarns uses a small 2 crochet hook (1.75 mm) and light cotton yarn to form the delicate design. This is a beautiful way to add a touch of class to your home during the holidays or when houseguests are visiting. You can set a vase of flowers on top of your gorgeous crochet doily for a dash of color in the spring, or you can place it under a thick candle during the winter for a cozy look.
