    Watch the thrift stores and buy a round table. You NEED one. Gorgeous doillie. Other option, fold it in half and wear it as a shawl.

    I have made two round pineapple tablecloths. On mine, the pineapples are horizontal rings. Sorry, no pic at this time. It reaches the floor on a small round table.

    It would be nice using a size 10 hook,but i used size,now i don't remember.I made another doily for sale at a craft shop.It sits,i don't think 15 dollars was asking to much.

    Beautiful doily. Crochet is my passion. I too started crocheting when I was 10- had to learn a craft in Campfire Girls, and since my mother, aunt, and grandma crocheted, that was the natural choice for me. I also love doing pineapples.
