Crochet Pattern: Chunky Doily

By Rachel Choi – April 30th, 2018 Be the first to comment

Who said doilies have to be crocheted with small thread? This doily is crocheted using medium/worsted weight yarn and still has all the elegance of a classic doily. With the thicker than usual yarn (for a doily at least), it works up super quick so that you can crochet an entire set of doilies in a day. The thicker yarn also makes it a great first doily pattern for beginners. The doilies would look great under a flower pot, candy dish, or even used as a trivet.

Using this stitch for a dishcloth is a perfect way to add character to an everyday piece. Crochet this dishcloth in only a few hours or less and add it to your linen supplies for a rustic, handmade touch! And don’t be surprised when your friends want a few as well.

Tip: always use yarn made from natural fibers, specifically cotton and linen, for kitchen linens so that they won’t pill with constant use!
