Star Doily Book No. 124 — Doilies, 1955
Star Doily Book No. 124 is a delightful 1955 collection of nine classic doilies from The American Thread Company. This charming vintage booklet features a beautiful mix of pineapple, floral, spider web, picot, and cluster-stitch designs — all shown in the lovely framed display on the cover.
Inside you’ll find graceful oval pineapple doilies in two sizes, a stunning 19" flower doily with a pink floral border, a pretty “More Flowers” luncheon mat, an elegant motif-center oval, a two-tone green-and-pink doily, delicate spider web and picot lace doilies, and a grand cluster-stitch doily with daisy center and tulip edging. There’s even one round knitted doily with a pinwheel motif for variety.
These timeless thread-crochet (and one knit) patterns are perfect for framing, table accents, or heirloom gifts. A wonderful piece of mid-century needlework history for any vintage crochet collector.
