Seraphina, round 17

The Seraphina doily has changed its look again, with the larger open areas and some more bobbles. This really has been a lot of fun to watch develop. I had forgotten how much I enjoyed crocheting doilies.

I have seen some very striking finished photos of others’ Seraphina doilies made with multiple, instead of single, colors. I really like the idea of two- and three-color doilies. So, it’s possible that I might make this design again (after this one is finished) in some color rounds. I found out that Knit Picks makes a crochet thread (Curio size 10) in about 20 colors, so I ordered some of it to try. What I’m using in this doily is DMC Cebelia in white. I’ve tried some other brands of crochet thread, and some I’ve liked, some not – if a crochet thread is too stiff/harsh, my hands suffer, so I hope the Curio is soft and easy to use.
