Heart Wheel Doily

It’s this time of year to crochet lots of beautiful hearts and my Heart Wheel Doily pattern is just perfect to stitch up some love! This one is interesting because it combines filet crochet technique with the usual doily design. I love filet crochet because of its grid-like pattern, and I was glad to learn how to add it the the classic round doily design.

Heart Wheel Doily pattern is a great one for the beginner crocheters to learn filet crochet technique. And you will also learn interesting stitch called extended double crochet at the end of the pattern. I have a helpful graph to follow along – it’s one of the eight hearts of the wheel and you will see it in written pattern section. The video tutorial provides additional visual help and guidance to count the stitches, and also shows you how to start and end each round.

BLOCKING DOILY

The Heart Wheel Doily definitely needs blocking after you finish it. I usually make the piece wet, stretch it out on blocking mats and attach it with pins. I also spray some starch to give it extra firm shape. Let it dry completely before removing the pins.

To crochet the Heart Wheel Doily I used Aunt Lydia’s crochet thread size 10 (color Soft Mauve). I ball has 350 yards in it and I used the whole thing. Crochet hook is size 1.75 mm.

Abbreviatons:
ch = chain
sl st = slip stitch
dc = double crochet
beg = beginning
edc = extended double crochet
hdc = half double crochet

Special stitches:
edc = yarn over, insert hook in indicated stitch, pull up a loop, yarn over, pull through one loop on hook, (yarn over, pull through two loops on hook) twice.

Pattern notes:
- Filet crochet open blocks = ch 2 + dc and solid blocks = dc 3.
- Filet crochet starts on round 7.
- The numbers on the chart next to solid blocks indicate the number of dc stitches before and after filet crochet part.
