VIEWER TIP:
In regard to our Rug~Doily pattern Flo writes:
"Hi, thanx for the great web site. I am going to make the doily using two strands of thread to get it a little bit bigger. When it is done it'll be a bread cloth. Thanx again!!! Flo"
Flo made the doily and wrote me again:
"The doily came out to about 15" diameter. I just repeated rnds. 2 - 9 once and then finished with rnd. 10. It is very ruffled though. You might be able to figure that part out. My daughter and I volunteer at an historic village. We wear costumes from the 1800's. I needed something to cover my bread basket. Crocheting has been done forever so this was perfect. I'll be back to the site again and will vote for you then too. Thanx again. Flo"
Thanks Flo for such a wonderful idea!
