Delicate Doilies for Every Need

August 31, 2013 by AllFreeCrochetAfghanPatterns 4 Comments

Doilies, doilies, and more doilies! Now, to some, the doily is a very frilly and vintage looking item that has no place in their home. However, with the pattern and project round-up below, I’ll show you just how versatile and useful doilies can be. From DIY home decor to simple doily patterns, there are many styles and ways to use doilies. Let’s take a look…

Doily Patterns for the Kitchen and Dining Room:

Sea Grass Table RunnerNaturally, doily crochet patterns are not always the easiest to crochet, but the look of the finished piece is quite elegant in a kitchen and dining room setting. Try out a doily style place mat or the doily table runner for a seriously cute dining area. Doilies give off an open and airy feel that can brighten up a drab room.

  2. Grape Lattice Place Mat
  3. Mantilla Doily
  4. Pansy Doily
  5. Doily Style Dishcloth (knit)

Practical Doilies for the Living Room:

Elegant Crochet DoilyWhile relaxing in the living room with a glass of iced tea, it’s important to have drink coasters to protect your coffee table. Instead of buying boring coasters, crochet a set of doily coasters to match your living room colors. Have some vintage doilies that you don’t know what to do with? Try starching them to make a doily bowl to hold candy or potpourri.

If you put your mind to it, I bet you can think of more creative uses for doilies.

    I think if people could see all the different patterns of doilies and understand how many different ways there are to use them – there would not be so much bad press about them! I’m tempted to try at least three of these projects!

    I have crocheted lots of doilies. My grandmother gave me her collection of crochet books . I have gone through all of them many times looking for the right pattern for the person I will be giving the item to. I always amazed at the different patterns you can make.
