Doily - FREE crochet pattern

Inspiration from an old bought doily.

Pattern in US terms

Yarn: scrap yarn in orange, pink, purple, dark blue, green and turquoise from Drops (cotton light, paris)
Hook: 4 mm (I crochet loosely so a 4,5- 5 mm hook might suit you better)

st - stitch
sc - single crochet
ch - chain
sl st - slip stitch
hsc - half single crochet
dc - double crochet (yarn over once)
tr - treble crochet (yarn over twice)
lp - loop = the chain made from previous round
2in1 - make 2 stitches, eg dc, in the same stitch.
[text inside staples are repeated] x 5 - repeat what is inside the staples the amount of times after the [ ]
*-* means repeat everything between first * to last *

Each round ends with a sl st unless pattern says otherwise.
1:st sc in round = ch 1, sc 1 in very first st.
1:st dc in round = ch 3

PATTERN:

ORANGE
1)  magic ring, dc 18 in the ring (= 18 dc)
2)  ch 3 (=1 dc), dc 1 in same st, [dc 2in1] x 17 (=36 dc)
Break yarn.

PINK, fasten new yarn where ever you like on previous round.
3) *sc 3,  ch 7, sl st 1 in 1st sc you made (so you´re back at the beginning again) and form a ring, hdc 9 around the ring of chains* (=12 rings)
Tip!  I make the first hdc directly from the sl st, just yarn over and start a hdc. When last hdc is made start from the beginning.
Break yarn.

PURPLE, fasten new yarn in 5th hdc, top of the ring
4)  *sc 1, ch 6, skip to next ring*. Repeat *-* til end of round. (=12 chains/ loops)
