Default Pale Crocus Doily

I hope you like this. I just finished it at 10:53 this evening (5/30/201)

It is an old pattern made with a size 6 steel crochet hook

Beautiful. You don't see much of these anymore. It sure takes a lot of work.

It is beautiful. My fingers refuse to work with small crochet threads so I am stuck with yarn scarves and hats. My mom did this kind of work. I have some of it framed and a few on table tops. You did a great job on this.

Beautiful work! I haven't seen crochet this delicate in many years. My MIL used to do this kind of crochet, and even made a bedspread once. I love it.
