Decorate your home or protect your table with a beautiful Doily from an 1845 pattern book, Mee’s Companion to the Work Table.

The original Doily pattern and Edging is available online for free, it does however contain some mistakes. It is also only written instructions, and after many iterations, I have fixed the errors in the pattern and charted up the lace patterns.

The original patterns are available here.

I also created a short video about the process of designing and knitting this pattern! It is available here - though please be aware it is not meant to be a tutorial.
