Debi's Lovely Doily

Debi, at Hooks & Yarns, posted a pattern for sale last week. It used plastic heart bracelets but I couldn't find any so I made it with a round one. Isn't it lovely?


A very, very sweet lady sent me a couple of plastic hearts so now I can make the correct pattern. This was so fun and so easy. You should definitely buy the pattern. It's less than $2. When I make the one with the heart I am going to add some rows to it. Our table is BIG and needs something a bit larger in the center. I was pleased that this held a 3" candle perfectly.

I'm testing a top pattern for Amy Depew. She used Vanna's Choice Glamour to make hers but I couldn't find it at Michael's, Hobby Lobby or WalMart so I am using Red Heart Sparkle. I haven't had the chance to use the Glamour. Has anyone else?

What a wonderful idea!
I am not a fan of doilies, but this one is wonderful!

Debi is very talented! And I applaud her pattern writing skills! I just don't have the patience. This was a great pattern.

I haven't tried the Glamour yarn. Have you looked online at Herschnerr's or AC Moore? Maybe they have it.

It's beautiful Bev!! And I love that the candle fits just right! In my quest for PEACE/peace of mind this year (word for the year/resolution 2012), I've been actually LIGHTING my candles a lot more.. Love them, have lots OF THEM, and just FINALLY made it a point to start USING them! Now, I just have to get one of those long lighters, because I almost got my candle-sooty hands from the candle jar all over my wool-eater afghan last night, and this would NOT have been a good thing!! (0; Have a great day! ((hugs)) ~tina

Just finished a couple of Valentines Gifts with Glamour. I liked the feel and it worked up well.
