Spider's web doily and bowl

These items are worked as one continuous round, but written to show each round (UK terms used throughout), so a stitch marker is required to mark the end of the round.

Full instructions with photos are given in the pattern.

The sides of the doily and bowl are not even.

Materials required: For both bowl and doily 165 yards/150 metres (approx) No 10 or No 12 crochet cotton, 1.50 mm crochet hook. For either item individually approximately 85 yards/75 metres No 12 crochet cotton.

Finished sizes - Doily: approx 9-inches/23 cm across at widest part, Bowl: approx 6-inches/15 cm across, but will depend on shaping.

Gauge: Rounds 1-3 on either item approximately 1½-inches/4 cm across at widest part.

Smaller cobweb doilies and bowls can be worked for a hallowe'en setting, using No 80 crochet cotton and a size 0.60 mm hook. These will be approximately half the size shown above and the doily for example could then be used as a coaster.
