Shamrock Soiree

This textured doily has 23 rounds and measures about 10 1/2" in diameter.  For this doily I replaced the hearts from the Sweetheart Soiree pattern with shamrocks!  The thread I used is Aunt Lydia's size 10 cotton crochet thread in the colors Wasabi and Cream.

☘ 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.
