How To Crochet Easy Round Lace Doily

 

🧶 Materials

• Sport-weight cotton yarn (≈ 100 g / 96–97 m), or similar fine cotton

• Crochet hook: 3 mm

• Scissors and tapestry needle

• Optional: blocking tools for finishing

🌸 Doily Construction

Round 1 – Center Ring

1. Make a magic ring, or ch‑4 and join with a sl‑stitch to form a ring.

2. Chain 3 (counts as first dc), then make 11 more dc into ring (total 12 dc).

3. Slip‑stitch into top of initial chain‑3 to close the round 

Round 2 – Chain Spaces

1. Chain 4 (counts as hdc + ch‑2).

2. Hdc in next stitch, ch 2 — repeat around.

3. Join with sl‑stitch to top of the beginning chain‑2 

Round 3 – Clusters with Ch‑2 Loops

1. Slip stitch into one ch‑2 space.

2. Chain 3 (dc), then dc, ch 2, dc — all into same space.

3. Chain 1, then (dc, ch 2, dc) into next ch‑2 space — repeat around.

4. Slip stitch to join to top of chain‑3. Before starting next round, slip stitch into the next chain‑space to align start of round

Rounds 4–9 – Building the Lace Pattern

Each round progressively increases the size of chain loops and spaces. The structure is:

• Make shell clusters of dc, ch‑2, dc in previous round’s ch‑2 spaces,

• Chain spaces between clusters grow by 1 ch each round (e.g., ch‑2, ch‑3, … ch‑6).

• Slip‑stitch alignments at the start of each round maintain symmetry 

Follow the video or written chart exactly through round 9, incrementing spaces as you go.

Edging – Final Round

1. Chain 1, sc in first 3 stitches.

2. Then:

   • 2 sc in each ch‑2 space,
     sc in next dc,
     2 sc in next ch‑2 space,
     5 sc in each ch‑6 space,
     sc in next 3 dc, repeat around.

3. Slip‑stitch to close

📋 Quick Reference Table

Round	Action
1	ch‑3 + 11 dc into ring (12 dc total), sl‑stitch to close
2	ch‑4, (hdc, ch‑2) repeating around, join
3	cluser (dc, ch‑2, dc) in each space with ch‑1 in between
4–9	Expand shell clusters and chain loops; alignment slip‑stitch between rounds
Edging	sc work and multiple‐sc clusters into larger loops for scalloped edge

By following those steps through 9 rounds and adding the scalloped edging, you’ll create a delicate and elegant round lace doily approximately 30 cm in diameter—perfect for home decor or gifts.
