Frostwoven Snowflakes

These snowflakes have 5 rounds and measure about 3" if using size 10 thread.  They are quick and easy to make!  The thread I used is Aunt Lydia's size 10 cotton in the colors- cream, orchid pink, ecru, red, and burgundy.  The beige colored one is white thread that I dyed using tea :D  A printer friendly version is available here- https://www.draiguna.com/p/frostwoven-snowflake-printer-friendly.html

Blocking and Finishing

It is optional but recommended to block your finished piece. Fill a bowl with water and add some liquid starch if you prefer the doily to be lightly stiffened. Soak the doily and gently press out any excess liquid, being careful not to pull or twist on the stitches. Lay it flat on a blocking mat and pin the doily working from the center out to the edges. Allow the doily to dry completely before removing the pins.
