Gorgeous job! I like that you used 2 strands of 10 thread! I never thought of that; but then again, I haven't made any doilies yet. lol

Hi yarncat, percentage-wise, how much bigger do the doilies make up with the double strands?

Thanks,All!

Working with 2 strands of #10 is about the size of Lustersheen.I have also used a "D" yarn hook.

The top doily pattern said 6 3/4" with 10 thread.The bottom doily pattern said 8 1/2" with 40 thread.
