It's optional to block the doily if you'd like.  I used water mixed with a little bit of starch and tacked it in place with stainless steel pins.

Here it is after being blocked-  

I hope you enjoyed making this doily! :D

picot- ch 2, sl st in second ch from hook

Instructions-

Back

Round 1

With color 2, ch 4, 11 dc in fourth ch from hook, sl st in third ch of first dc (12 dc)

Round 2

ch 3 (counts as first dc), dc in same st, [2 dc in next dc] around, sl st in first dc (24 dc)

Round 3

ch 3, dc in same st, dc in next dc, [2 dc in next dc, dc in next dc] around, sl st in first dc (36 dc)

Round 4

beg shell in same st, sk next 2 dc, [shell in next dc, sk next 2 dc] around, sl st in first dc, fasten off (48 dc and 12 ch-2 spaces)

Front

With color 1, chain 2

Round 1

6 sc in second chain from hook, sl st in first sc

Round 2

ch 1, sc in same st, ch 2, [sc in next sc, ch 2] around, sl st in first sc (6 sc and 6 ch-2 spaces)

Round 3

ch 1, sc in same st, ch 2, sc in next space, ch 2, [sc in next sc, ch 2, sc in next space, ch 2] repeat 4 times, sc in next sc, ch 2, sc in next space, ch 1, sc in first sc to make last ch-2 space (12 sc and 12 ch-2 spaces)

Round 4

 ch 1, sc in same space, ch 3, [sc in next space, ch 3] repeat 10 times, sc in next space, ch 1, hdc in first sc to make last ch-3 space (12 sc and 12 ch-3 spaces)

Round 5

ch 1, sc in same space, ch 4, [sc in next space, ch 4] repeat 10 times, sc in next space, ch 1, dc in first sc to form last ch-3 space (12 sc and 12 ch-4 spaces)

Round 6

Place the front over the back wrong sides together and right sides facing out. 

Insert hook in the space on the front and between any 2 shells on the back and make a sl st (shown in the photos and steps below) 

1- Insert hook into the space just made on the front

2- Then through the space between any 2 shells on the back

3- yarn over and pull through both spaces and loop on hook

4- slip stitch complete

Now working in the shell stitches on the back, sc in next 2 dc, (sc, picot, sc) in center space of the shell, sc in next 2 dc

[insert hook into next ch-4 space on the front and between next 2 shells on the back and make a sl st, sc in next 2 dc on the back, (sc, picot, sc) in center space of the shell, sc in next 2 dc] around, sl st in the first sl st

If you would like to add a loop for hanging, chain 12 (or until its the desired length) and sl st in the first sl st.  Fasten off and weave in ends.
