Windmill Doily

I'm still working on the baby blanket.  On skein #4 of 5 skeins total.  Just finished a doily I had been working on at work over lunch breaks.  It's called Windmill, but, I'm sorry I don't know where it cames from.

Rose Scallop doily

For lack of a better name, this one is being called Rose Scallop Doily.  It's the last one completed before starting the baby blanket and is from a foreign publication.  It's made with #30 thread and a #13 hook.  The doily measures 20-21 inches across....but I do block rather tightly.

It's not a doily???

Yes, it's not a doily this time.  I've started a baby blanket for a little girl.  It's been about 3 yrs since I crocheted anything for a baby, so I'm having to get use to working with yarn again.  It is coming along nicely.  The pattern is from a Leisure Arts leaflet called Crocheted-Afghans for Baby 2 published in the late 1980s.  I've made blankets from this leaflet before.
