My biggest doily ever :))))

YAY  !! Today I am going to share my biggest doily ever : )  It is a vintage pattern called ‘Between-meal-centerpiece ’ . Seasoned crocheters and doily lovers do know about this doily .

I have made it with Anchor knitting cotton and hook size 2 .75 mm .  It measures 46 inches in diameter . It was difficult to block this big piece . My humble hubby tried to help me out but stretched the border picots wrongly so please ignore those dangling picots  : )
I couldn’t resist taking many pictures ; in return , I will cut down on my words .
 
I can use my doily in various ways . Let’s see………...

 

On the Sofa

Color combo that I used

 On the carpet

On the sofa again

On the bed

Few close - ups .......................

On the floor

 

Both are images on the floor with and without flash. I am not sure in which shot the colors are looking better.

On the dining table

My dining table is very old, so I have taken pictures on my daily printed tablecloth.

Image taken against sunlight...........that's why dark

 On sofa again, with doily on one side .

The dining table we have is 7ft x 4 ft and this doily fits properly . But in new house we plan to buy a smaller table . I may then have to use the doily on sofa . Which way does it look good on sofa , center or one side ?

The pattern for this is free and available here . There are some corrections to it but I have not consolidated those properly to write here . If anyone wants to attempt it , let me know , I will share those corrections .

Hope you liked my work and these colors make you smile . Waiting eagerly to hear from you  : )

Have a nice day !
