Knitting Sets


I like knitting doilies in sets , basically  sets   are variations of the same pattern.   For knitting a set the pattern is the same but the number of rounds differ. For larger  doilies the pattern has to be repeated more number of times and for smaller doily the  number of rounds is less.
Sometimes different stitches are added before cast off so that the doily can give a different and better look, or a particular pattern of a lace stitch can be added before  casting off the stitches.







The above Spiral set  in white is knitted in different sizes with the same pattern, the number of rounds is varied to increase or decrease the pattern. 
This particular doily pattern can be knitted to a size as small as 10” diameter to a doily that would fit the largest round table, probably around 300 + knitting rows.
Though I have no plans to knit the largest doily right now, but my next post definitely will be on a beautiful doily pattern that will remind you of the stars.
Till then stay tuned. ……
