Pineapple Hearts Doily

I just finished another doily. I made this one from white, size 10 cotton thread using a number 7 hook. I got the pattern from Magic Crochet April 2002. The name of the pattern is Birthday Breakfast, but I call it Pineapple Hearts. :) The pattern called for a picot stitch edging, but after doing it, I decided to frog that and not put an edging. I think it looks softer and neater. Of course, had I blocked it, it would have worked, but I do not have what I need to block, so I don't. ;) It's 17" across.

That is certainly a beautiful intricate doily Debbie. Shows a lot of patience.

Such a lovely doily. When I was crocheting with thread I often left off the picots - they always turned out crooked.
