Rising Sun Doily

First of all, welcome to my brand new crochet blog! I love to crochet and since I enjoy the crochet blogs of so many others, I thought it might be fun to start my own. :)

For my first post, this is the Rising Sun Doily. It is a crochet along over at Crochet Galore. The doily was very fun to make, and I know just who will be the recipient...my daughter's mother-in-law.

I didn't follow the directions exactly. To make the doily a bit smaller, I used the next stitch down for each of the stitches. For example I used a dc for a trc. Still worked up beautifully. Thanks for looking, and enjoy your day!
