Crochet Toran with Three Leaves Design, Door Hanging, Door Decor

Hi, how are you? must be fine. This time I made one door hanging (Toran) and one doily with matching design. Three leaves design, I tried in rows and in round. In this post I will write about rowwise three leaves design. I made this with Vardhamaan 4 ply yarn but what I found is that quality of the yarn which I bought from local shop is not good which can be easily seen from the photoes. Pattern: In figure 1, it can be seen that there are 5 yellow strips in that door hanging and the middle green design is lacy so carrying yellow yarn forward is not easy rather is not possible. Hence I make 4 small extra balls of 5 gm each so that separate balls can be used for each strip separately. The weight 5 gm is approximately taken and the remaining yarn will be used to make tessels. Length 36:, height 5.5" and with tassels 11". Weight 75 gm. Pattern: Chs 154 R1: By yellow, dc 1 in each ch starting from 4th ch (151 sts)
