Grama's Favorites Doilies, Page 2:
Please remember:
The pattern booklets listed on this page are all over 50 years old -- they
may be a bit fragile and will likely show signs of wear (which pretty much
describes the rest of us who are over 50!) In fact, I would say condition
ranges from "Wow" to abysmal -- I'll try to note obvious
problems.

that can be made in either bedspread weight or size 30 crochet cotton. Has been

"extra" with one of the mail-order patterns, but the paper is of

measures 14" in diameter when worked with size 50 (yes, that is 5-0)
crochet cotton. These are printed on thin paper and used to be sent through the
mail in regular letter envelopes, so pattern does have mailing creases -- and
