This isn’t really much of an update. But I had to share that this came in the mail for me:
I fell in love with Patricia Kristoffersen’s doily designs after buying Absolutely Gorgeous Doilies, and I have already made so. many. things. from that book. Exhibit A, Pineapple Song:
After tracking down a copy of Doilies with a Twist online, I couldn’t wait to get it. Kristoffersen’s designs are indeed gorgeous, and have fantastic texture to them that you don’t find in many designs. Plus, I have always had good luck with her patterns – the instructions just make sense!
I’m not sure why I have been on such a doily/thread crochet kick lately (Between-Meal Centerpiece = DONE), but my latest pattern purchase will keep me busy.

Such a pretty pattern, I have never made a doily so perhaps I should give it a try.
I highly recommend it! 🙂 Doilies are nice portable projects for summer.
I made pineapple song as well. Love her patterns!
Agreed – she’s easily my favorite thread crochet designer! I gave my Pineapple Song away as a gift and keep meaning to make another.
