About This Class
Where Lace Meets Legacy
Doilies are one of crochet's most iconic and cherished traditions — delicate, intricate, and deeply satisfying to make. In this two-part workshop, you'll work on a classic pineapple lace doily from the very first stitch all the way to a beautifully blocked, finished piece.
We've designed this class specifically for crocheters who have never attempted a doily before. Over two comfortable Saturday sessions, you'll build skills and confidence at a relaxed pace — no rushing, no overwhelm, just you, your hook, and a lovely project taking shape in your hands.
The week between sessions gives you time to practice what you've learned before we come back together to finish strong.

What to Bring
Materials
Students supply their own thread and hook. This gives you the freedom to choose a color you love! Here's what you'll need:
Your Supply List
- Cotton thread — DK, sport, or lace weight. Must be 100% cotton (no acrylic blends — cotton blocks beautifully and holds its shape).
- Crochet hook — Choose a hook that is 1 to 1½ sizes smaller than what your thread label recommends. Doilies need a tighter tension to hold their shape and create crisp lace.
- Scissors and a yarn/tapestry needle for weaving in ends.
- Stitch markers (a few are helpful for tracking rounds).
Not sure what to bring? Hook and thread recommendations will be sent to you upon registration. Craftique Studio also carries cotton thread and hooks available for purchase in-store.

Questions
Frequently Asked
Do I need to attend both sessions?
Yes — this is a two-part workshop and both sessions are required. Session 1 covers the foundation and first rounds; Session 2 completes the lace sections, edging, and blocking. Missing one session means you won't be able to finish your doily.
What weight thread do you recommend for beginners?
We suggest sport or DK weight cotton for your first doily. The stitches are easier to see than with fine lace thread, which makes learning the pattern much less frustrating. You can always challenge yourself with finer thread once you've got the hang of it!
Will I definitely finish my doily by the end of class?
Our goal is for every student to complete their doily within the two sessions. Pace can vary depending on your thread weight and working speed — but we'll make sure you leave with everything you need to finish at home if needed, and we're always happy to help after class.
Is blocking really necessary?
It makes such a difference! Blocking is the process of wetting your finished doily and pinning it into shape as it dries — it opens up the lace, evens out stitches, and transforms a crumpled-looking piece into something truly beautiful. We'll cover it in Session 2 so you'll know exactly how to do it.
