Crochet Doily 2 with Double Rose Border

Crochet Rose Doily

Fig 1

Hello friends,

This is one more doily I made. I have seen this handkerchief with border of roses on facebook page os some one. I like that idea and I made this doily.

We can enlarge it make 5 rounds of white in between as usually we work flat circle and then again repeat two rounds of roses (R5 and R6).

I use Vardhamaan 4 ply yarn. Its weight is only 60 gm and width is 12"

Pattern:

Always make first double crochet (dc) by ch 3.

R1: With White, in a magic loop make ch 3, dc 15, cl by sl st, (16 sts)
