After my recent Coaster Success, I thought a matching doily would be nice to complete my mother-in-law’s birthday gift.

I based this on a pattern by Nicki Trench, that was published in the Simply Crochet magazine, Issue 4. I love Nicki Trench and have a couple of her books. They’re really easy to follow, and have lots of lovely simple projects.

I wanted mine to be a little larger, so I added a few extra central rows.

I think it will match rather well, although I didn’t use any cream in the coasters. Maybe a few more coasters are in order – cream and black.
