Rose Medallion


Rose Medallion
Originally uploaded by flibbertigibbetbunny

I made this doily about 12-13 years ago. It was my first big crochet project. It is 16 inches in diameter.

I have found myself looking through all my doily books, wanting to do a knit doily. Are knit doilies difficult? I tried to knit what looked to be a simple knit bookmark and made so many mistakes I finally just put it aside. (threw it away!) Any suggestions for an easy knit lace project before I try a round doily?

I did one of those wash cloth ones like http://www.jimsyldesign.com/dishbout/kpatterns/doilycloth.html
which I thought was a great way to start out.

there's more here http://www.jimsyldesign.com/dishbout/kpatterns/knitnonj.html

or try a Rhonda White one like

Thank you, Wendy! I may have trouble deciding which to try. The first link is very similar to one I had queued on Ravelry(that looks more difficult but probably is not.
