My thread doily is now finished, although not yet blocked, I still have to work out the best way for me with that. Here it is hot off the hook!!!
This is really the second thread doily I've attempted. I did one when I
first taught myself to crochet, then I tried a second one, but only got
a few rounds finished as I found it hard to work out the pattern, so I
added an edging myself and used it as a tiny doily for under a small
vase!!
This time I looked at the photo of their finished doily and found that helped me when I wasn't sure what the instructions wanted me to do. I really enjoy thread crochet a lot but I am still very much an amature of course.
Remember the fluffy scarf I had problems with? That's now finished as well. :) I just need to cast off. I meant to save a label so I could say exactly what I used for this, but I must have thrown them out. It's like an eyelash yarn but softer and more wooly almost. Very, very soft.

lot of different things. It looks a little thin on the needle there, but it's just pushed up to the end. I have done it 24 stitches wide, so it's just the right width for how I like it.
So now I just want to finish these completely and get stuck in on my next project!!!
Hope all is well with all of you. Take care everyone!!!

Your doily is very pretty - great work. And I love the scarf - it looks like it will be very snuggley around the neck. :)
