Comments: Another small doily, another old-looking pattern. The second and sixth rows, those with flowers, is more difficult to describe than to crochet!

Material :Pearl cotton # 8, hook 1.15 mm (Boye steel #11), color ancient pink; you can substitute with Cebelia #10 or equivalent cordonnet thread (but the gauge can slightly vary); you may want to give a look to my virtual store if you need materials.

Stitches :ch, sl st, sc, dc,tr, tcl = 3 tr-clusters = 3 tr worked in same st/sp and closed together
