This textured doily has 23 rounds and measures about 10 1/2" in diameter. I used the first 9 rounds of the pattern for Frost Nova, which already had a few hearts, and added more to the outer section for a total of 24 hearts! Texture is added to the doily by working around the posts of certain stitches. There is a full photo tutorial for every round and detailed instructions on how to make the special stitches. If you would like just the written pattern, it's available here- https://www.draiguna.com/p/sweetheart-soiree-written-pattern.html

♥ Blocking and Finishing ♥
It is optional but recommended to block your finished piece. Fill a bowl with water and add some liquid starch if you prefer the doily to be lightly stiffened. Soak and gently press out any excess liquid, being careful not to pull or twist on the stitches. Lay it flat on a blocking mat and pin the doily working from the center out to the edges. Allow to dry completely before removing the pins.

I am speechless with this pattern!!! So beautiful and wowza!!
ReplyDeletehooooooraaaaaaaaaaa
ReplyDeletei'am going to start <3 :)
So excited to start this. I'm going to make it into a dreamcatcher. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteHi! What size ring did you use for the dream catcher? I’m making a few as well for gifts using 12” metal rings. Would you mind sharing how you attached the doily to the ring since the doily size is much smaller than the ring. Thanks!
DeleteAbsolutely beautiful. Thank you for such a well illustrated and written pattern.
ReplyDelete❤❤❤❤❤
ReplyDeleteAm I missing something here? Right now, all I want to do is print the pattern for the Sweetheart Soiree doily. I don't want to print all the pictures. I'm not finding the Printable Version. Please help, I'm old. LOL

On Round 11 it says, "3-dc decrease in the 3rd, 4th, and 5th dcs of the next 9 dc group on Round 9 directly below." Shouldn't that be the 4th, 5th, and 6th dcs, e.g. the middle 3 dcs on Round 9?
ReplyDeleteHi,
DeleteYes, on Round 11 it should be the 4th, 5th and 6th dcs. I've updated the pattern to fix this mistake. Thanks so much for letting me know!
Kind regards,
Julia
this is so pretty and your directions are great thank you will try
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful! <3 Thank you so much for sharing your pattern and offering such detailed instructions with it.
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot for the photos. Very helpful. Amazingly beautiful doily.
ReplyDeleteI'm confused on round 4. Am I supposed to do 3sc,ch 3,3sc,ch 3 then slip stitch in that 3rd chain from hook? Then in round 5 do I skip the chain 3 space to skip 6sc?
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely wonderful and stunning pattern! At first I thought it would be to diffficult for me, but thanks to your fantastic explanation I made it. I can't even imagine how to create such a pattern. You are a real artist! Thank you so much for sharing. Greetings from Helga (Berlin, Germany)
ReplyDeleteYour work is exquisite. Many Thanks for sharing it with us.

Большое спасибо , очаровательно , буду вязать , всем удачи !!!! Может есть ещё варианты ?
ReplyDeleteWhat type/brand yarn did you use? I bought Aunt Lydias size 10 using 1.75 hook but its quite a stiff yarn and doesnt look anywhere near as nice as yours...

ReplyDeleteCristina from Houston,TX
Finally finished mine ~ I used the chunky cotton yarn in Dark Pink and trimmed in out in Bright White. Very beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing your lovely patterns with all of us!
ReplyDeletethank you. dont undestand english.😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
ReplyDelete.
Não precisa saber inglês a receita em fotos é perfeita já fiz vários dele.
DeleteI'm stuck on round 10 where it says to do [BPdc, ch1] seven times. Is this supposed to be in the same stitch 7 times or in the next 7 stitches? I'm looking at the picture of the finished result of row 10 and I might be missing something in this step because it's not looking like in the picture on this step.Is there a video or somewhere that shows this row step by step?
ReplyDeleteDid you ever receive a reply or finish the project?
DeleteI just got done with Row 10. You just keep continuing in the next 7 dc. So in the 9 dc from Row 9, you'll do a regular dc in the first and last dc. In the 7 dc in between, you'll do [BPdc, ch 1] for each one. Hope this helps! It should look like the image provided below the instructions for Row 10.
DeleteHi, I also was confused about Row 10. How do you make the BPdc stitch?
DeleteLindo, maravilhoso, obrigada pelo compartilhamento.
ReplyDeleteIs there a pattern to make this as a flat or edge lace?
ReplyDeleteLove this pattern. I'm having trouble on round 12. FPdc decrease in the two FPdc I get but FPdc in same st. I don't understand. What same st? Over the decrease I just made of on the 2nd leg of the FPdc decrease?
ReplyDeleteF
Hello.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pattern.
I have a question.
How do you count "80 ch-1 spaces" in round 10?
Thank you
I'm doing this a year later and have the same question! I only have 64 ch-1 spaces in Round 10. 8 ch-1 in each of the 8 fans.
DeleteDear Julia, thank you for this beautiful pattern. I would like to ask you for permission to translate your free patterns for the 1800 members of my Facebook group.

Kind regards, Anneke de Wilde
ReplyDeleteHi Anneke, I was just thinking I needed this pattern in Dutch! What's your facebook group's name? I'd like to join. Tia! Belinda
DeleteHi Belinda, the name of my facebook group is : Van Diagram Naar Tekst
DeleteFound it! Thanks :D
DeleteHi Belinda, does this mean that I get your permission to translate the free ones and if so, how can I send you the translation so that you can use them on your website?
ReplyDeletekind regards Anneke de Wilde
Hi Anneke. I'm not in a position to give you permission. I just stumbled on this pattern and got excited when I saw you wanted to translate it. I hope you get permission from the owner of this website, but unfortunatly, that's not me. Kind regards, Belinda
DeleteThank you so much for this BEAUTIFUL doily pattern!! I made this using yarn instead of crochet thread because I wanted to see how big it would be for a floor doily and it turned out GREAT!! Now I am using two strands of yarn to make it an even bigger floor doily and so far so good!! I'm LOVING this pattern more and more as I go! Actually thinking of making it in as many colors as I can. Thanks sooo much for the pattern!!
ReplyDeleteHi I have a question on round 11 it says you should have 56 chains of spaces but I only get 48.
ReplyDeleteIt is so kind of you to share these beautiful patterns with us at no charge! Your instructions are absolutely wonderful, too! My daughter will be SO pleased to have a new doily with HEARTS! ;-D
ReplyDeleteI am so glad I clicked on this pattern. It is great that you show how to do each round, I wish more patterns for other site would do this. I can't wait to start this. THANK YOU for a beautiful pattern
ReplyDeleteThis is an amazing pattern! Thank you!

ReplyDeleteSono Paola di Genova Italia, Voglio farle i miei complimenti per il bellissimo centrino. Inoltre La ringrazio per aver messo anche la relativa spiegazione.
ReplyDeleteCordiali saluti e ancora complimenti!
Thank you so much for this beautiful pattern!
ReplyDeleteI too have done it in same red colour(aunt lydia)
Hi, thank you for this amazing pattern! I made it from a thicker wool in red with pink edge and absolutely love it. I am wondering if this pattern could be worked into a shawl. I would love to wear it <3
ReplyDeleteMuito lindo e com as fotos consegui fazer prestando bastante atenção. Julia eu sou grata por vc ter postado está peça com receita. Vc é maravilhosa. Um abraço do Brasil pra vc cheio de gratidão.
ReplyDeleteDo you sale these? Would love to purchase some pink ones!!! You can email me at imthinkingmysterious@gmail.com if you sale them!
ReplyDeleteThank you very much for the schemes! It is very generous, most designs are for sale nowadays!
ReplyDeleteYour style of pattern formatting is so helpful. I'm older and learned to crochet by written patterns, so charts are so challenging I have given up on them. Your method is helping me to understand the charts by following the written pattern at the same time as seeing the chart and also the actual crocheted piece. Thanks for your patient and clear teaching style.
