Envie-a-Hexie Doily

Notes

When the instructions say join with dc, it means that instead of joining to the first stitch with a sl st, you make a dc in the first st. This creates the last ch space for the round and makes sure that the hook is in the center of the ch sp ready to start the next round. The dc that is used to form the last sp  is counted as ch3sp rather than as a dc.

The doily will ruffle . It will settle on blocking after its completion.
