Star Doily

Star Doily

     This pattern is from an old Workbasket (March 1964).  I love those old magazines.  Some of the adds just crack me up.  My favorite is the one on buying a baby alligator...no returns on it!  They usually have at least one tatting pattern and loads of other neat things.  This doily was done in pearl cotton #12 and measures 9".  For some of the rows, I had to stack two shuttles to get three colors in the round.




Challenge 4 of 25.

  2. Great doily. I recently acquired several Workbaskets. Thought I'd go through them & do the tatting projects but have yet to start. Karen in OR

  5. Beautiful! I love the colors - so soothing. I like tatting with pearl cotton, it seems like there are some very soft colors in what I've inherited.
