Crochet Doily with Beautiful 3 D Border, Thalposh, Mandalam

 

Hello friends,

In the last post I have posted one table mat with same type of border but then many of my friends requested me to make round doily with the same border. So I made this.

I used Vardhamaan Millenium yarn and 3.5 mm hook. Width of this doily is 17.5" and weight 120 gm.

Pattern: With white yarn,

R1: In a magic loop make dc14, cl. (First dc is always ch3)

R2: dc2 in each st, cl (28).

R3: (dc1 in one st, dc2 in next) 14 times, cl (42).

R4: (dc1 in 2 sts, dc2 in next) 14  times, cl (56).

R5: With light brown color, (dc1 in 2 sts, ch6, skip 2 sts) 14 times, cl.

R6: sl st in between two dcs of R5, ch3, on left dc of two [(make long dc sts 8 times, YO pass through 2 sts) 8 times, TURN, ch3-picot, (make long dc sts 8 times, YO pass through 2 sts) 8 times, sc 6 in ch6-sp] rep 14 times, cl.

Join white yarn in ch6-sp.

R7: dc8 in each ch6-sp including sc-sts in ch6-sp, cl. (112)

R8: dc1 in each st, cl (112)

R9: (dc 1 in 7 sts, dc2 next) 14 times, cl (126)

R10: (dc 1 in 8 sts, dc2 next) 14 times, cl (140)

R11: (dc 1 in 9 sts, dc2 next) 14 times, cl (154)

R12: (dc1 in 10 sts, dc2 next) 14 times, cl (168)

R13: dc 1 in each st, cl (168)

R14: same as R13. BO

Join red yarn at any st.

R15: (dc1 in dc-st, ch1) 168 times, cl. BO.

Join brown yarn at ch1-sp

R16: dc2 in each ch1-sp, ch2, cl.

Join yellowish color in ch2-sp

R17: (sc1 in ch2-sp, dc8 in next ch2-sp) repeat till end, cl. BO.

In first photo, I have shown, how to join 5 petals and make flower then 2 petals on down side then new flower. First petal of new flower is joint with the last petal of previous flower and so on.....

R18: [sc1 in each of the 8 dc-st, sc in one round below ch2-sp at the joint] rep till 7 petals made, 

join with the first st as shown, make border of 3 petals, join the last with                                                  5th petal and one flower is complete as shown and so on. Join last flower with the first flower also.

The beautiful border is ready.
