Hello everyone! I'm new here. ;-) I'd like to try and make some beaded doilies and was wondering if there are any patterns online besided the ones contained in the following site. (tissage en napperon)
Welcome Manuela!
I did a searches using the following terms and came up with many resources: bead picot, beaded lace, beaded netting and bead doily. Also there are several African netting stitches that would translate well into a doily.
I tried going to that site and the only beaded doily entry was an old (broken) link.. Bummer
You can use just about any doily pattern you like-- put beads at sc stitches. It's easiest to plan if you use charted patterns, rather ones with the directions written out. Mark the sts to be beaded with a highlighter, then string on the required amount of beads before you start crocheting. Kaytee "Simplexities" on
