Crocheted
Medallion #2218
From "Star Book of Doilies"
Book 22 in the early 1940's. Substitutions will most certainly be necessary. These can be
used for many things.
From:
Crochet...Gotta Love It! Materials: American Thread Company "Star" or "Gem"
mercerized crochet cotton, sizes 20 or 30. No hook size given, but I imagine anywhere from
a 9 to a 12 or 13. Motif measures about 3 1/4 inches.
Crocheted medallions can be used for dress or shirt
trimming or collar and cuff trims or as household decorations or coasters. |
