Get your sunglasses

I took part in another vintage knitalong. This time we were supposed to do something from the 1950s, so I looked at some lovely sweaters but decided on this quick 50-row doily.

It is meant to be done in fine crochet cotton, but I used dishcloth cotton and 4.5 mm needles, so I knew it would turn out huge.


It was going to be a giant purple thing, but then I ran out of purple. Then I ran out of red!


Luckily I have the perfect green bowl to sit upon it.

  1. Wow! That's pretty pretty. Very nice knitting. I like the colours. How big is it?
    Kathy took the card, just so's you know.
