Description

Last updated on January 18th, 2023 at 05:31 am

This 15-page booklet contains 8 or so lovely ruffled doily patterns.  The patterns use “tatting crochet”, “crochet cotton” (crochet thread) in sizes 30 and 50, and pearl cotton size 5.  I’ve used modern pearl cotton size 5 and crochet thread size 10 and 30 on the few patterns I’ve completed and had no issues with sizing, but you may need adjust the size of the crochet hooks you use to achieve the desired size.   Overall, these patterns read in such a way you should have few to no problems understanding them in a modern context.  The patterns are straightforward to follow, and I would rate them as easy to moderate in difficulty.

This PDF file is an old file I downloaded over 15 years ago but I honestly don’t remember where I got it from.  I post it here for your convenience.  The original creator of this PDF book scanned the black and white pages in greyscale.  It does look like each page had been lightly cleaned up, but it has not been retyped or updated to current terminology and/or techniques.  The PDF file does not contain the back cover of the book.

This listing is for the PDF file download only, NOT a finished product.
