A Gorgeous PK doily !!

Hello friends !! Hope you celebrated a happy Easter with your family and friends on the weekend  :)

I made this Crochet doily called ‘ Windsor Round ’ from the book ‘ Absolutely Gorgeous Doilies ’ by Patricia Kristoffersen .

Made with size 10 crochet cotton and 1.75 mm hook size, this doily measures 13.5 inches across .

I tried to take the above picture with the camera option ' Foliage ' to capture the actual yellow color , but it was difficult to take and most of the images turned blur . This was somewhat ok ; I love those spring colors :)



I am working on some more crochet projects . Hope to share with you as soon as I complete and don’t intend to start any new ones . But , while writing this post when I opened the book to find the doily details , I was again tempted to start one more :)

I am trying to keep control over my crochet anxiety disorder and I want to concentrate more on cross stitch in coming week for my turtle trot update . And when I work on cross stitch , I feel tempted to try some more new cross stitch projects :) Nevertheless , I have decided that whatever WIP count I reach , I will finish at least one of them per month . If that doesn’t happen….then…ummm…I can always forgive myself  ;)  But seriously , I mean to complete and I guess I have achieved a decent success rate so far .

Do write in .
Happy week !!
Preeti  :)

  10. What a beautiful doily Preeti. I just can't crochet with that fine thread. But I do love to make granny squares with regular yarn.

  16. That is a very pretty doily, Preeti! I can't work with a hook that little or thread even, so my doilies always come out bigger than they should but that's okay. I've not had time to crochet or cross-stitch lately but definitely plan to start something tonight and then after tomorrow it will be Spring Break and more time for me. Yay! Best wishes, Tammy

  17. So vibrant and pretty! You did an amazing job! Do crochet in the morning and then cross stitch at night! That way you can do both things that you love!
