Romantic Doily is one of my top favorite doilies to crochet.
I think it looks elegant and delicate, somewhat vintage at the same time, as a true doily should! Some of you have described it as ‘dainty’ and I love that because it’s the perfect way to put it!

I would say the skill level is easy to intermediate. You will learn to crochet different types of clusters and picots in addition to many basic crochet stitches.

I use Golo crochet thread size 10 (color in tutorial is Light Orchid) and crochet hook 1.75 mm. My doily measures about 10 inches in diameter.
