For Anna

This doily's name is Anna, and so is my Known Secret Pal from Crochetville! I made this doily double-extra special for her. First, it shares her name. Second, it is in purple, her favorite color, and third, it is made in size 30 thread. We both love working with tiny thread!

It is a Patricia Kristoffersen doily from Simple Elegance. It measures about 12" in diameter. The original if done in size 10 would have been about 21". The thread is a vintage DMC Cebelia. This color and thread size is made no more, but for awhile it once did exist. I wasn't able to capture the true purple-ness of the thread as my lighting sucks. It's a nice grape purple, but leaning more toward a royal purple. It's a very beautiful purple.
