“Alexandria (Doily and Coaster Set)” is the textured crochet design with the flat central circle.
Pattern will be available for download in PDF format after the purchase.
Note that the pattern includes two PDF files in English:

1. Written instructions for each round (using U.S./American terminology) with detailed written explanations of all special stitches (the printable file with “Alexandria.English.For print” in its title).
2. Written instructions + diagrams + video tutorial (the file “Alexandria.English.Diagrams & Video & Written pattern” in its title). This pattern presents three options for completing a doily border: Main option, Light option and Superlight option. You need to work 28 rounds of the main part of the doily pattern and continue with one desired option for the border. Note: I advise you to watch the video tutorial for the doily first 3 rounds where recommendations for working of the central circle are shown. I used an unusual technique for completing stitches to make a very even surface of the central circle with no seam. Recommended materials: cotton thread #10 and hook 1.50 mm.

Thanks for choosing my design and enjoy crochet!
