Harvest Doily

September 13, 2021

The colorful fall season is approaching and it calls for new decoration options, so let’s crochet the fabulous Harvest Doily. The designer of this doily is unknown, it’s a free diagram online, but I’m very grateful for this beautiful pattern. I hope my tutorial is helpful and inspiring to you to crochet your own Harvest Doily.

The skill level is easy to intermediate. With this pattern you will learn or practice different types of clusters and picots. I do recommend this project for beginner crocheters to learn lots of basic stitches and work with fine crochet thread.

The doily definitely needs blocking after you finish it. I usually make the doily 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. Check out my blog post about blocking your crochet HERE.
