Filet Square Doily
Designed by Julie A. BolducThere are not very many filet doily patterns that are worked in the round but here is one I hope you enjoy. This doily would also be a great motif used in a table cloth or in a bedspread. It would be a long term project that you could take with you to make up the squares then sew them together when you have enough made.

Size 10 Crochet Cotton or bedspread weight cotton in desired color.
Size8 steel crochet hook

Remember What ThreadWhile keeping track of what your ball of thread is when you open a new ball of thread, put the wrapper inside the ball. That way, if you need to buy more of the same stuff, you will know what it is.
