I finished
Mom's requested off-white pineapple doily ... and it hooked up huge! The booklet said it should be 20 inches across, but when I measured it says 21 inches ... although pinning it out I could have sworn it was over 24!

| pineapple doily for mom |
The reason I did this pattern is because I have wanted to make it since I bought the little book. It was the reason I bought the book. It will really stand out on Mom's antique dark-stained dining table, too. Of course, my mind is already supplying the image-overlay of a large holiday ham on a pretty blue-trimmed serving platter sitting atop this doily.
I meant to snap a "before blocking" pic ... but once I got the ends woven in I didn't remember until I had it wetted down.
Oh, I also cut some fabric today. More abut that tomorrow, I think ... I am feeling quite pleased with this latest doily.
