Crocheted Doilies: These doilies may be used for luncheon sets, center pieces, pillows, buffet and vanity sets. Made in string -- white, unbleached or colored -- the will measure 6, 12 and 16 inches. They may be made in a finer thread, in which case, they turn out smaller.

These lovely crocheted doilies are the thing for endless use in hot summer days. Their airy look will add a coolness to your home".

Materials: 1 ball (400 yards) of unbleached crochet and knitting cotton will make a small, medium and large doily, and a No. 5 steel crochet hook.
