Doilies are one of those items where crocheters can really show off their stitch repertoire.
The free crochet doily patterns here represent both vintage and modern creations.
Part of what makes doilies so special is that by simply changing the thread or needle size, the crocheter can achieve an entirely different look for their work.

Easy Doily Pattern |
Our first Easy Doily Pattern was truly a Crafty Tipster original pattern. Our second easy crochet doily is a vintage design where I’ve rewritten the pattern and added instructions on how to begin and end each row to make it easier for beginning crocheters.
Great vintage crochet motif with picots. I updated the pattern to include how to finish each row and share what it looks like using both crochet thread and 4-ply yarn.
Olive Squares is another vintage crochet pattern we’ve found. The original pattern designer suggests using this pattern to make a counterpane. To me, the pattern is interesting enough to be made into a doily or pillow cover.
The Flower Stand doily is one of several patterns from The Lady’s Album of Fancy Work. This pattern, along with a number of others was first published in 1850.
The Mat for Flower Vase is one of several patterns from The Lady’s Album of Fancy Work. This pattern, along with a number of others was first published in 1850.
