SUNLITE
This is number 2 in the series of doilies that I am designing. I am happy with how it turned out except the outer rings are woven picots and they do not work to well with the fine thread. I think the woven picots will turn out nicer with a thicker thread. The doily is 6 inches across and is made of Marilee's (Yarnplayer) Tiger Eye Hand Dyed Thread size 80 and I used about 35 yards of thread.

Very pretty! I've never heard of woven picots before. Thanks for introducing me to something new!
Very nice design! I've never tried woven picots.
This is lovely!. What a neat idea of yours to do the woven picots. I think you are right about using a thicker thread to make the picots stand out better.
That's so lovely! The thread is perfect for the doily. May be is the woven picots were a little bigger will stand better with the fine thread. Will look more lacey. But anyway is very pretty.
I haven't been able to design a lot of doilies, so hat off to you!
Once again, very pretty. I'm excited about the book!
Gorgeous, Clyde!
