One of my goals for 30 before 30 is to crochet a doily blanket. I was going to wait to to do this till the fall, but Nancy at Nangellini had the perfect yarn for this project. By perfect I mean an aqua heather super wash wool.
I haven't crocheted in awhile and it was fun to get back in the saddle. While I love knitting garments when it comes to blankets and such I much prefer crochet.
The first 20 rows were a breeze and were completed quickly, but once I got past that 20th row this project started to take some time.
Here is a shot of one of the completed pineapples. |
I have two rows left to crochet and I'll be finished. As of right now it takes about 30 to 40 min to crochet one row. That means I have about an hour left of crocheting to go.
What am I going to do on my Friday night? Stay home drink a beer and finish crocheting my doily blanket, unless some better offer comes around.

Where can I get a copy of this pattern?
I found this pattern through ravelry.com it's called double pineapple doily. It's a free vintage doily pattern.
