green doily


My boy's family recently went to Pakistan and I asked for bamboo crochet needles and a Tunisian crochet needle (okay, and about 20 Bollywood movies). Bamboo needs are CRAZY expensive here in Germany. They kindly brought a set of 12 crochet needles and I now have enough to work on multiple projects with the same needle size (I keep the needle with the project to make sure I don't forget which one I'm using).

As a thank you for the needles, I made my boy's mother a doily. I rushed to get it finished before he actually brought the needles, so I didn't have time to properly block it or take good photos, but here is the finished product:
I watched 16 episodes of Doctor Who, 4 hours of BBC's Emma, Unstoppable and something else I can't remember while crocheting this doily over a two-days-and-a-few-hours period. But, I like the finished product so much I want to make one for myself!
